Ohio: 92,000 Presidential ballots unexecuted
So 92,000 Ohioans showed up at the polls Election day, but chose not to vote for a Presidential candidate. You know how it is; it's raining, you've been waiting in line 2 maybe 12 hours, you care about civic responsibilities -- but this Presidential candidate thing is so 20th century. cheapest essay writing service
Kerry Lawyer Seeks Ohio Ballot Inspection [AP]
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Democrat John Kerry is asking county elections officials to allow his witnesses to inspect the 92,000 ballots cast in Ohio in which no vote for president was recorded, a Kerry lawyer said Sunday night.
The request is one of 11 the Kerry campaign made in a letter sent over the weekend to Ohio's 88 county boards of election, which will begin recounting presidential ballots this week.
"We're trying to increase the transparency of the election process," said Donald McTigue, the lawyer handling the recount for the Kerry campaign. But he added that several requests — such as using independent experts to check election equipment, "are trying to push the edge of envelope."

Yep, some people did not vote for Pres due to the choices, ignorance or other reasons. Does not give the Dems a right topunch their card for Kerry now does it?

I do not see all the info on the STOLEN Washington State Election that has many irregularities and now that the left has "won" in the third count they want to hold hands and sing peace chants. So you see, it is NOT all about a fair process, IT IS all about the left and Dems getting back their power and trying to de-legitimize Bush's SECOND win in as many tries. See realpolitics.com for more info on how this one was stolen. Stop worrying about assigned essays, get qualified help at http://www.custom-essay-writing.net/
Oh yeah, Bush won Ohio by 118,000 folks. Learn it, live it, love it.....

You don't get it, do you?
Of course, we are used to that ... but anyway...
The fact that 92,000 ballots were recorded with NO presidential selection in a PRESIDENTIAL election is a significant problem. If there was actually no candidate picked, then why not. If there WAS a candidate picked and it was discarded (regardless of who was picked) why was it discarded?
In Washington state, every count resulted in higher totals against Dino. Why was the FMR so bent on excluding votes? Why do they, now that they lost, want to try to exclude MORE votes so they can win?
This isn't the NFL, juggle head. It isn't about winning or losing, it is about something you WILL have to live with for the rest of your insignificant life. If you think this system is so great, after all, then why aren't you in Iraq?
Or (soon enough) in Iran?
