‘Daily Voting News’ For March 25, 2006

Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org and VoteTrustUSA.Org

The news was slow today. Two counties announced that they had ignored, or were unaware of, what has recently happened in Illinois as they get closer to having Sequoia voting machines. Another Pennsylvania county has switched from AVS to Diebold due to AVS’s inability to provide voting machines on time. And the votes are still being counted in Texas….

    1. Well,.. once they fix,… fudge,… and fabricate the
      totals down there in Texas,… then they will share the final (Primary Voting) results.

    2. John, I noticed some interesting comments about what happened in Tom Green County:

      There were several things they found,” said county Elections Administrator Michael Benton. ”There were just little things that she found when we added them up (that caused a problem). We can’t go back and re-create them.” (link here).

      In other words if any machine had been hacked there is no way to find out.

      In still other words, the system is not secure, because what they call "little things" cause failure and they can’t trace it back to a cause.

    3. Speaking of votes of the democracy kind, have you noticed that Bush and Rice have votes on the Afghanistan Supreme Court?

      Is that what they mean by a voting democracy?

      The Supreme Court dismissed a case where an Afghan man was scheduled to be executed because he had converted to Christianity from Islam (link here). But only after strong "votes" from the US regime.

      The penalty in that country (where democracy was brought to them at the business end of heavy weapons, by an invasion, and now furthered by occupation) is death. By hanging I think.

      The case was dismissed after the president and the secretary of state placed their votes (and some secret words of "encouragement").

      So the model of democracy that has been instilled is one that is trial and error, with the president of our country running another country when that country does ugly democracy.

      Perhaps that is why there is not enough time to fix the voting machines or do Katrina cleanup here.

      Gotta spend a lot of time saving christians from the democracy we just brought to them to make them welcome us as god-led christian liberators?
