Still angry, Kerry supporters nationwide try to change Ohio elections
Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Still angry a year later, John Kerry supporters across the country are donating money to an effort to overhaul elections in the state they blame for costing them the White House.
A New Mexico retiree who became incensed after reading last fall about pre-election directives by Ohio's secretary of state gave $100. A substance-abuse counselor in Maine who suspects Ohio-made electronic voting machines were tampered with to give President Bush the victory contributed $25.
/snip
The four constitutional amendments on Tuesday's ballot in Republican-dominated Ohio would expand voting by mail, limit campaign contributions and create bipartisan boards to draw districts and oversee elections - jobs now done by politicians. The amendments were proposed by Democratic-leaning groups.
Reform Ohio Now, a coalition of union and citizens groups that backs the amendments, has raised $2 million overall in donations and services, including nearly 3,300 contributions of $500 or less from all 50 states, totaling $120,000. A third of its money, $629,750, came from People for the American Way in Washington.

A substance-abuse counselor in Maine who suspects Ohio-made electronic voting machines were tampered with to give President Bush the victory contributed $25. Despite the fact that only 16 percent of voter in Ohio used such? And the machines in question were overwhelmingly in Dem-controlled counties?
I don't know what is more shameless - the wingnut conspiracy theories, or the AP giving them coverage.

And in 2008 they will be giving to yet another fund that blames the election debacle in the state of _______ that cost them the election.
LIBERALS ARE NOT CONTENT UNLESS THEY ARE IN A STATE OF DISSATISFACTION.

Just for laughs. Could someone find and post that great pic of that sad sack woman protestor from Ohio protesting the final certification of the vote? What a great pic of a truly, truly, sad loser.

Let's add to that list of sympathetic donors: "wacked out left wing kooks all over the country are being suckered into sending their hard earned money to support a cause that doesn't exist - guaranteeing free elections in Ohio."
But not a damn penny to clean up the rats nest in NJ.
