Dan Froomkin talked about voter fraud in his WaPo column today
Not entirely positive, but it's at least there...

Rick Klein writes in the Boston Globe: "A week after Kerry conceded and Bush declared victory, those assertions and scores of others from New Mexico to North Carolina have kept alive fierce speculation that Bush's victory either wasn't real or wasn't as decisive as it seemed. With memories fresh from the 2000 irregularities, e-mails and Web postings accuse Republicans of stealing an election.

"Much of the traffic is little more than Internet-fueled conspiracy theories, and none of the vote-counting problems and anomalies that have emerged are sufficiently widespread to have affected the election's ultimate result. . . .

"Still, with reports swirling on the Internet, six Democratic members of Congress have asked the Government Accountability Office to investigate. Leading academics have joined the fray as well, saying that the integrity and future of the nation's voting system demand a vetting of all claims."

1. So unless the problems change the outcome we don't care? Bull!
Figure it out and fix it. It should have been done after 2000. They blew it off then but damn it, fix this system.

I do not understand why that is hard to get. I don't understand why the errors in the system are not important enough to find and fix.
