...someone is trying to figure out how they can rig the new machines.... Bingo. Sounds like this is the political equivalent of industrial espionage.

These devices should all have lo-jack styled tracking devices inside them. That way their location could be known AT ALL TIMES (including the drive from the polling center to the headquarters).

"We don't know where they are. I don't think anyone does at this point," said Joseph Cotter, who was hired to fix the problems highlighted by the chaotic primary. Did you check the car trunk of the local DNC chapter chairman?

I hope I'm wrong .. we don't want those machines showing up .. especially on election day .. Actually, they will show up the day after the election -- so that their votes may be tabulated during the recount process.

This is corruption so endemic it is tantamount to sedition.

Bingo. Sounds like this is the political equivalent of industrial espionage. Well this election is big for the RATS .. but the 2004 election is even bigger
It's all about regaining power and the RATS will stop at nothing to get it

...someone is trying to figure out how they can rig the new machines.... Bingo. Sounds like this is the political equivalent of industrial espionage. Of course this is. They are useless for resale if this is a custom designed system. This is similar to slot machines being sold to wannabee casino cheats for dissasembly (as does happen). I wonder if the central vote tabulation software is sophisticated enough to identify the machine, serial number, firmware/software versions, etc. Somehow I doubt it.
Somewhere, somebody is probably "improving" the tabulation software with the coded equivalent of the following: if Rebub_votes > DemoRat_votes then DemoRat_votes * 1.5 = DemoRat_votes or something similar.

I think this is the most brilliant idea one could possible come up with to rig a vote. You simply dump 4,000 Demo votes into a machine that might have been 2,000 Rep & 2,000 Demo....then you find the right place to switch the real machine for your duped machine. The serial number plate can be switched in a matter of minutes and any anti-tamper device can be reset. So if you have 10 of these machines, you can dump 40,000 votes into the system in one county. In Broward, that would be enough to switch a county commissionar race or anything else you wanted to do. Brilliant!

All is not lost:
Cotter ordered an inventory of the machines, using their bar codes, shortly after he was hired.
They know which machines are missing. If they turn up on election night, and others disappear, the places where they turn up will be suspect.
If Florida dems are paying attention to the fraud investigation going on in South Dakota, they may not want to deal with swapping machines. If they're not paying attention, let's pray the FBI is.

Don't bet on it-
There was VIDEO of a Gore worker bending and twisting ballots to pop out the chads-
I have a copy of this video on my computer somewhere... it was also shown LIVE on TV at the time, and nothing was ever said or done about it

How about a 2004 presidential election?
To: Joe Brower
We're being shut out in the Florida press and at the polls, it appears. We can speak out. We need a bigger soapbox.

Well put, Fracas.
To: Joe Brower
GEE! I THOUGHT THE STAIN WAS MOVED TO SOUTH DAKOTA. DON'T TELL ME we've still got hijinx in S. Floriduh. How much did MacAuliffe pay his rent-a-mob to steal those?
Question number two? What body of water did they go to? Okeechobee, the Atlantic, the Gulf or maybe in the Hillsborough River by McLawyer's humble home.
To: CFW
Have they checked a bay? Tampa Bay, Biscayne Bay...

Someone should go to jail.
Whyat the SoE and the democrats are doing down there is a crime.

THE OLD BAIT AND SWITCH. Who ratted them out re: the 18 missing machines or is that part of the plan to confuse the seniors again so they're afraid to vote and turn to a helpful democrat for help.
We want integrity and I'm sick of them manipulating our seniors. STAMP OUT VOTER FRAUD.
