So, when it gets discovered in Franklin County that one machine (at a Falwell church!) awarded 3,800 extra votes to Bush, it's acknowledged as a "glitch."
Later we discover that Cuyahoga BOE (optical scan/punch card) thousands of more voters than registrations in certain wards and townships. So you have in some cases 10 or 15 times as many ostensible voters as registered voters in the township (often in wards that are centrally counted.)
The next day, Cuyahoga BOE claims this is merely a way to "park" absentee ballots. As a preliminary device, these are added to given townships within a Congressional district, before a subsequent count.
Why? Why not just tabulate a separate category for absentee ballots within a given CD, rather than adding the absentees to a township to which they do not actually belong, and artificially inflating its preliminary vote total, and creating this confusion?
This seems to unnecessarily create confusion. IN fact, it makes no sense. Why must the absentee ballots be parked anywhere, other than their own category?!
I'm sorry, I don't buy it. This just seems to be a way to invite confusion, and very suspicious given the overall circumstances.
I'm realizing that it's ALWAYS been this way... we have always a big confusion of conflicting numbers and mistakes... and it happens to provide a perfect cover for fraud.
How naive I was, back in the 1980s, thinking that the way to fix elections was to keep people ignorant, tell big lies and control the media.
Ah, but how simple it is to add robbery to the mix!
What a farce it is. Voting will never again make sense without simple paper ballots that are kept and counted by hand, not just by party operatives, but with independents present.
Fat chance?
