57 Rural Counties Affected - Vote Fraud Suspected

Rural Oklahoma Voting machines know how to count backwards.
(Oklahoma City) November 18, 2004 - Rural Oklahoma Voting machines know how to count backwards.

That looks like what the secretly programmed machines did for Sen. Kerry in President Bush's easily won Presidential Election victory in Oklahoma.

All 77 counties use the Optech Eagle voting machines and Tabulator's made by ES&S, Sen Hagel's republican company.

The respectable, conservative "Tulsa World" newspaper reported Nov 3rd that Kerry was winning in 57 of the states's rural counties., with 70% of the vote counted. Turns out that the famous November 3rd report was probably not supposed to be printed.

It represented the counting when the tabulating was about 70% "complete," as they used to say in the old Soviet Unon.

The "official" State of Oklahoma Election Board vote totals released later show Kerry not winning; but, losing in all the state's 77 counties, including the 57 rural counties. Yea, somebody really messed up, big time, and published a partially completed and, I guess you would haver to call it, "fixed" vote.

A simple comparison of total votes for Kerry between the staid establishment mouthpiece, the "Tulsa World" newspaper and the so-called "official" final vote totals at the State Election Board show fewer votes for Kerry in 57 counties than the "Tulsa World" does.

Fifty-seven of the 57 counties clearly demonstrate that Sen Kerry lost 37,982 votes to the ES&S Optech Machines. During the same time period President Bush gained a whooping 393,825 votes.

Nice, slick, easy way to win an election. As a man once said "He stole it fair and square!"

In other words, Kerry lost votes already cast by voters. The voting machines counted backwards. What could be simpler than that?

Who programs these things, eh? Why, ES&S Corp., of course.

It turns out the every vote in the state, all 1.4 Million of them cast, were counted on the same type of flawed machine, programmed originally by the Hagel's ES&S company.

Whether they knew the difference or not is not known; but, spokesmen for the State Election Board would only say the Machines and Tabulators were fron Optech. They breathed not a word anout ES&S.

Who really won? Well, nobody really knows! Most people in Oklahoma still think President Bush won his Presidential election. Wrong! Time for a re-count, this time by hand!

Not that Oklahoma's very few Electoral Votes make much difference in the grand scheme of things. Except, of course, fraud is suspected in Ohio, too. A recount is already guaranteed in Ohio. What will Oklahoma officials do?

"Film at 11." Fat chance!

People in the Great Flyover State of Oklahoma all know that the Professional Hairdo Anchors in the Oklahoma TV stations and the Radio Celebrities will not touch this with a 30 Foot Pole since their right wing owners keep them on a real short leash.

But, the money is good and the living is easy in Oklahoma, where "The Oklahoma Observer" says 20% of the people can't even read. This makes TV and radio even more important.

If these small state celebrities are reading this, and you know they are, then these parasites know the truth. I dare you, Kelley! Go for it! Get a life, dude! (Kelly Ogle is a local TV personality in Oklahoma City who specializes in "happy talk" transitions.)

Watch for more election 2004 reports here as I get to them. Please circulate and distribute IMC this report widely. You know that none of us can depend on the so-called dominant press to do so in the great state of Oklahoma or the USA anymore.

Meantime, I reminded of the Salsa ad for some company. When informed that somebody had bought Salsa from a company in New York City, an ole boy hollers off screen "Get a rope!"

By the way, what are YOU going to do about this situation?

Blackwell sued over Cuyahoga vote tally

Suit seeks to validate provisional ballots
Saturday, November 27, 2004

Plain Dealer Reporter
A national nonpartisan voters' rights group has asked an Ohio court to reinstate nearly 8,000 provisional ballots ruled invalid in Cuyahoga County.

The People for the American Way Foundation filed suit Friday in the 8th Ohio District Court of Appeals in Cleveland against Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell and the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections.

Last month, a federal appeals court ruled that Blackwell was correct in directing poll workers not to count provisional ballots cast outside voters' home precincts. That was only one of a flurry of conflicting court decisions at the federal and state levels.

Cuyahoga had 24,472 provisional ballots cast in the Nov. 2 election, and 8,099 - fully a third - were invalidated. That was the largest single body of controversial ballots in any of Ohio's 88 counties.

The suit is a mandamus action, which asks a court to compel a public official to perform a duty.

The action charges that poll workers and precinct judges "were deeply confused" about how to handle the provisional ballots and that Blackwell failed to provide clear instructions.

People for the American Way wants the court to order Blackwell and the county elections board to check electronic voter-registration rolls against paper registration records, to notify each voter who cast an invalidated ballot why it was rejected, and to give that person a way to contest the invalidation.

The suit also wants ballots counted if voters cast them in the wrong places and officials failed to send them to the right polling places.

Blackwell's office directed questions about the lawsuit to the Ohio attorney general or the Cuyahoga County prosecutor's office.

David Zimmerman, an assistant county prosecutor, said Friday that he had not seen the suit and could not comment. A spokesman for the Board of Elections issued a similar response.

Leslye M. Huff, a Cleveland lawyer for the nationwide group, said it has filed no other suits of this kind elsewhere in the country "but let's not discount the possibility."

sweet. thanks for posting, maybe some damn thing will actually get done about all this ridiculous, evil sh**. :wavey:

I hope so. :wavey:

Hehehehehe...
 

Well, What do ya expect from the newspaper in a DIEHARD conservative town of A-Slut, oops...I meant Tulsa. With the likes of Oral Roberts, TBN ("Praise Jesus cause he said to call us and give us yer bank account number & credit card number too and we MAY pray for you...If the Price Is Right") & the KKK all residing in "T-Town" nothing surprises me.

Oklahoma's electoral votes are as useless as a tennis racket to a double arm amputee...No one cares about the Presidential election in OK anymore, We all know who will win before the election even starts (I predict the Repub candidate in 2008 will carry OK...).

What sadly hurt Kerry in this state was the flip/flop on the war, Since Oklahoma's economy is predominantly based on the 5 military bases in this state...

Wow, I guess the New York Times (Owner of the NBC affiliate KFOR channel 4 in OKC) would never touch it since they're "supposedly" right-winged as the author says :rolleyes:

Well, What do ya expect...The US government could give a flying vertical f**k about the fact that Oklahomans cannot read. Maybe if our state was as important as CA, PA, FL, TX or OH then the politicians would all being wearing "Chocalate ass stain mustaches" from the asskissing we would receive (Oklahoma-the new "Got chocalate milk?" state!)

Our poor Democratic Gov.Henry had to get a lottery (aka retirement fund for the redneck f'tards) on the ballot to pass so Oklahoma could fund education since those numbnuts in Washington DC dont give a crap...

Brian "Oklahoma...Where the wind comes sweeping down the plains, Where the waving wheat, sure smells sweet & the Kerry votes just up and disappeared" j.
