BBV: NYT reports on a new battleground in the vote stealing war
Time to get back to work crew.... and I trust that now it is tomorrow we are allowed to do so.

There is loads of material in here to chew on.... the final page names the lobbyists and their paychecks... looks like well over $40k a month is being spent alone on suits with license to spend for favours.

Eloriel, I expect this will raise your hackles given your theory on NY and CA and the grand plan to steal America.

So let the parallel surfing begin.

Replacement Near, Old Vote Machines Are New York Issue
By ERIC LIPTON

Published: October 20, 2003


ames Parks, on his knees, struggled to find the one screw amid the 20,000 parts that would unjam the scraped and dented New York City voting machine he was repairing. Ray Crews, another mechanic, had a handful of thin metal straps, which he carefully threaded, one at a time, into the back of the 800-pound behemoth he was servicing nearby. And Jamie Wilkins used a screwdriver to flip back tiny copper switches in the endlessly complex guts of another battleship-gray machine.

1. New Yorkers be aware
Politics are being played over the electronic voting machines. This is good, because it gives individuals the opportunity to be heard. Call and write your rep to let them know you are watching and demand that whatever machine they buy must have a "verifiable paper ballot" In Ohio the voter has had no chance to be a part of the selection. It is just being rammed down our gullet by the Repugs.
