Still angry, Kerry supporters nationwide try to change Ohio elections

COLUMBUS, Ohio --Still angry a year later, John Kerry supporters across the country are donating money to an effort to overhaul elections in the state they blame for costing them the White House.

A New Mexico retiree who became incensed after reading last fall about pre-election directives by Ohio's secretary of state gave $100. A substance-abuse counselor in Maine who suspects Ohio-made electronic voting machines were tampered with to give President Bush the victory contributed $25.

"There were so many questions and allegations about voter fraud, vote machine tampering, that it really frightened me," said Elizabeth Schrader, 50, of Old Hickory, Tenn. "Serious voter reform is necessary in all 50 states."

She added: "If Ohio can start the ball rolling, then more power to 'em."

2. Defeat Kenneth TAFT Blackwell

The honorary white male conservative Kenneth TAFT Blackwell is running for governor.

Kenneth TAFT Blackwell must be defeated. Kenneth TAFT Blackwell is part of the corrupt Ohio Republican establishment, and the engineer of the Ohio election skulduggery of 2004.

Kenneth TAFT Blackwell must be stopped.

3. Reform elections in Ohio?

Start the ball rolling in Ohio?

Why who would ever think of such a thing?

Please check out www.reformohionow.org

Ohioans can contribute and volunteer. Much help is needed. Since it's an off year, turnout will be more important than ever.

Those from outside Ohio can contribute $$.

4. why support Kerry, he didn't support us

Kerry is a dollar short and many days too late.

We shouldn't waste time enabling him.
