Presidential Election Tracking: A STOLEN ELECTION - AGAIN!
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 09:13 AM by tommcintyre
<KICK THIS UP OVER AND OVER - MAKE SURE EVERYONE GETS A CHANCE TO SEE IT. ALSO, PROPAGATE THIS POST ALL OVER THE WEB. WE HAVE 11 DAYS BEFORE AN EVEN MORE EXTREME SITUATION WILL DEVELOP>

http://www.independentmediasource.com

November 3rd - In hindsight, we never stood a chance - the "fix" was in from the beginning. Nothing we could have done - no matter how many voters we registered and got to the polls - would have made a difference. In the end, the numbers would've been "adjusted" so Bush would win enough electoral votes. And - so he would have a majority popular vote; so he could declare a "mandate" and push through his extremist agenda.

In Florida, and probably Ohio (and very possibly other states), the election is most likely being stolen through voter fraud. I say this for the following reasons:

- The exit polls showed a clear Kerry advantage in these states. Early in the counting yesterday, Bob Woodward expressed reservations about the wide disparity between the exit polls and the claimed vote count. And the gap has only gotten worse since then.

- Those still undecided at election time historically trend for the challenger.

- Bush's approval rating has averaged about 48% in the polls just prior to the election. It is unheard of for an incumbent to be re-elected if this number is under 50%.

- A high voter turn-out strongly favors the Democrats over the Republicans. This will turn out to be the highest turnout in 40 years (since the sixties).

- The "young vote", who registered and pledged to vote in record numbers (and polled strongly against Bush); were "under the radar" in the national polling - due to using cell phones, etc. So their vote should've skewed the voting results much higher than the pre-election polls indicated. (Also, in many polls, they were not counted because they had never voted before, and were not considered "likely voters").
- An article even indicated that Democrats also were under-represented in the polling surveys:

"Bush or Kerry - Are Pollsters Making the Connection? New CEA Survey Finds Consumer Shift to Cellular Phones, New Telephone Technologies Leave Millions out of Polling Process - Survey Finds Republicans More Likely To Respond To Phone Polls; Democrats More Likely To Screen Calls and Answer Most Calls At Home Using Cell Phone"
http://www.independentmediasource.com/feature_archive.htm#102304_19

I'm sure there are other discrepancies. These are just the ones that immediately came to mind.


How did they do it?

There are many traditional ways to influence an election. But since the 2000 Florida election, a much more powerful way of influencing the election has been implemented - electronic voting (Evoting). With Evoting, it is very easy to change the results of an election. And no one can prove it, since there is no paper trail. There are many ways this can be done by programming the machine to give a desired result. For example, it is possible to program an Evoting machine to change the votes by inputing an exact combination of voting choices. This is very similar to entering your password into an ATM bank machine to get money. This Presidential election, 30% of the votes were cast using Evoting - WITH NO PAPER TRAIL! Many computer professionals have been leading the charge against Evoting. The more someone knows about this kind of voting, the more they are against it.

I suggest you educate yourself about Evoting and voting fraud. A good place to start would be to watch the following documentaries on my "Watch Online" video page.

- Votergate 1 and 2

- Unprecedented: The 2000 Presidential Election

http://www.independentmediasource.com/video.htm

<Also, watch other vids on this page, like "Bush's Brain", to better understand what we are up against.>

"Invisible Ballots: A temptation for Electronic vote fraud"
http://www.independentmediasource.com/video_p2.htm

"Governments are installing computerized voting systems with no paper record to verify accuracy. Elections will be controlled by companies that do not allow voters to inspect their software. If vote counting becomes privatized, there may be no way to get it back. High-tech vote fraud is already a reality. If you value your vote, you must get this information to your friends – and fast!"

and "Everywhere But Florida" are also excellent. But I do not have links to watch them online; just to the web sites and to watch the trailers.

<I will develop an "Evoting Fraud" page by tomorrow night (November 3rd). Right now, there is only one link here. Please send me any good ones you may have.>

What will they do if they succeed in this theft?

If Bush administration succeeds, it is clear that this group of right-wing extremists plan to finish transforming our country. They plan on transforming it into something that our founding fathers never intended. Our country will become a place that is only "friendly" to the privileged few; and adheres to a very narrow intolerant belief system. In addition, we will become even more isolated and unsupported by the rest of the world - possibly irrevocably.

And those who want to do us harm will only become more inflamed and multiply. The world (including our country) will increasingly become a much more dangerous place to live. The net effect of a Bush win would be that the disturbing trends we have seen over the last four years would become much more extreme and permanent.

So what do we do?

1 - Organize, and participate in, demonstrations, protests, etc immediately! Write letters/email the media, government officials, people you know, etc - anyone who will listen. The word must be gotten out about this! The mainstream media (and the GOP) are already "spinning" this away from any discussion of the possibility of voting fraud. Public attention MUST be drawn to this now - before the results are finalized. < I will look for and publicize any activities that may help.>

IF THIS COMES OUT THE WAY THIS LOOKS LIKE ITS GOING TO, WE HAVE TO TAKE MAJOR ACTION!

For example, a very serious, coordinated long-term economic boycott of the US big corporate business system. HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS! (More on this in upcoming days if necessary.)

Keep positive, and keep coming back here. We have power if we work together.
