CNN: Iowa Election Reversed after Handcount, Sibel Edmonds, Mexico News


CNN's Lou Dobbs: Hand Counts in Iowa Kept Incorrect Op-Scan Counts From Installing the Wrong Candidates!
Republican Primary Saw Popular Incumbent Nearly Lose, Save for a Hand Count of the Paper Ballots

Unlike San Diego's Busby/Bilbray Race, Iowa Election Officials Took Concerns of Election Accuracy Seriously!

"A county in Iowa has just come close to putting the wrong candidate in office because of a massive programming error."

Says Dobbs in his closing remarks to Kitty Pilgrim: "If this message is not getting through that's emanating from every corner of the country using these voting machines, I don't know what it will take."

2. I know. I watched the show. Lou is the only host talking about this
evoting scam at extended length. I just feel bad becasue he only has something like 70,000 viewers each night. I only wish we could get the rest of the news idiots to talk about it too!!!!

3. But Lou, the machines are functining as intended.
Just like they did in 2000. They're installing Republicans & relieving the populace of the need to have dissenting political opinions.

5. The machines are the Crooks last line of defense
The way I read it, the (R)s use multi-level tactics at local and state levels to thwart Dem voters from voting, such as caging lists, intimidation, limited voter access, challenging, provisional ballots trashing to get the vote close then use the voting machines to juice them to incredibly narrow victory. There is no way what has happened is statistically possible where so many elections come down to 1-2% or less. And, in most cases the Cons walk off with the win. Just no way.

7. Until voting rights and its legitimacy is restored no other politics are..
really even worth debating or contemplating. I am ready to storm any wall, we are all at end game, no matter if you realize it or not.

Any war, catastrophic act of mother nature, pestilence or famine takes a back seat to the sanctity of voting in a democracy.
Wake up and smell the coffee :think:
