Election2004 - Prove It or Re-Do It

“How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think." – Hitler
The Boston Globe reported that there were more than 30 reported voting problems per 100,000 votes in FL, OH, PA, AZ, LA, NM and CO. And that's just the reported ones. Check our your state on the Boston Globe Map.
T H I N K . As a patent holding inventor, let me assure you there is a scientist in everyone. It is the spark within of curious concern or need that sends us in a relentless search of answers to the problems we will solve.
Every citizen needs to look scientifically at this election and accept only the facts. How many people voted for who? It is to our advantage to stop pretending not to know that this election is crooked. To accept anything less than an accurate vote count is dangerous. We need to be complete scientists.
The late, great inventor Bruce DePalma, (whose N-Machine uses spinning magnets and brushes to create free energy) explains scientific thinking in his new book DePalma, Free Energy and the N-Machine.
"The complete scientist is a balanced person. He has the discernment and discrimination to perceive the underlying truths of nature, hidden beneath the multiplicity of experimental appearances. He has enough sense not to extend his theoretical expectations beyond the resolution of his experiments. Nor to delude himself into thinking the manipulations of mathematics can offer him more insight than the conceptualizations on which they are based. What is required in Science is not the training of more clones or epigones. What is required is the balancing of the individual, the harmonization of thinking. The development of insight, and observational instincts to discriminate between the real and the unreal. That is Science. "
BLACK FOLKS NOTES
Every citizen should be involved, especially the members of my "race." A lot of the election fraud took place in minority communities. This has got to stop. Too many folks died for everybody's right to vote to let this issue handle itself.
Dr. King’s fear that he expressed to Harry Belefonte is now a reality. Black folks have been integrated into a burning house. It's an oil fire that requires the whole community to help put it out.
The DNA folks report that they can’t tell a person’s race from DNA. W.E.B. Dubois wrote in the introduction of the 50th anniversary his work THE SOULS OF BLACK FOLKS “Race is just an excuse that we use as to why some people can have and some people cannot have.” It's time to lay the drama down for a minute, forgive and go forward. The only way to win this battle for an honest vote count is for everyone to work together for the highest good for all concerned.
Not just Black folks, everybody. You can pick it back up later if you want. But now, at this critical point in history, everyone has equal responsibility to heal our nation. I’m not saying the sky is falling. That already happened on 9/11/01. I'm saying like in the book Horton Hears A Who, every voice and action should be talking loud and saying something constructive. It is time for more righteous rap.
MEDIA - DEMOCRACY KEY
Now that the major media is mentioning the possibility that the election did not produce an accurate count, it’s up to all the American people to restore balance and truth to our system. It’s broken. Do a news search on “Stolen Election” or "Voter Fraud." Look at the facts, the direct experience of vote accountability. If there is none, as in qualified voters who voted were not counted, then we have to redo the whole thing. Zero tolerance for fraud or inaccuracy needs to be considered. We can do it. Downloadable and paper ballots, received by a specific date, will produce a verifiable count. We are in the information age and it’s time to demand integrity in the data we use to make decisions. To base the world’s future on inaccurate data is just plain stupid. We must think things all the way through, and make adjustments N O W!!!!
WHY PROVE IT OR REDO IT
Why do we need to rethink our society then take positive steps to improve the quality of life on the planet? Our debt is high with millions of people without access to housing and medical care. Our roads and many of our cities are in disrepair. Our children and old people are in crisis in life centered issues like health and safety. Our environment is polluted. People are getting sick at a rate of one in twenty patients from just going to the hospital and picking up a secondary infection. We are hated by many in the world as we continue to kill innocent people in a war with folks who had nobody on the 9/11 planes. Imagine yourself as an Iraqi child today. ‘This is the freedom that you bring?’ Our president and members of his staff have lied to us and the rest of the world, incompetence has been promoted and the will of the people mis-counted. The government does not have a right to invalidate a registered person’s vote, yet that is what happened. It’s not about Kerry or Bush, though I am deeply disappointed that Senator Kerry has not taken an active role in demanding an accurate vote count. I still see the vision. It’s about fixing the system, and one person, one vote is a good place to start. It’s the ultimate check and balance, yet it is being mis-managed, as in no paper trail for some votes, as a way to continue with unpopular policies.


HOW
The question is what to do now to solve our problems. It begins with the individual.
First, look within to get the answer to how best you can heal our society. Listen to what you are thinking and the power that tells your heart how to beat and your lungs how to breathe, even when you are asleep. A great how to book is HOW TO MEDITATE by Lawrence LeShan.
Then, if appropriate for you, write, call or visit your elected and appointed officials and demand that your vote be counted. Trace it or report that it is missing. Discuss with your family, friends and associates relevant situations and solutions. Get a blog and write the truth.
As a nation, we need to decide; are we for war or peace, prosperity or debt, a healthy environment or a dirty one, an educated or a stupid society. Based on results we have become a warring people, deeply in debt, living in a dirty environment. That’s not smart. We’ve got to think things through, present evidence of election fraud scientifically, and calmly take our country back.
The late Peter McWilliams said ‘YOU CAN’T AFFORD THE LUXURY OF A NEGATIVE THOUGHT’ Stop thinking we are better than every one else in the world. We clearly are not. Everybody deserves a decent place to live, clean food and water and a high speed internet connection.
It is time for America to teach (not force) the world about freedom and democracy, by example – not bombs - the words of angels. “Peace on earth to men of good will.”
It starts with each of us creating peace within our selves by doing the right thing for the highest good of all concerned.

DON’T DENY – VERIFY

DEMAND AN ACCURATE VOTE COUNT

PROVE IT OR REDO-IT

SCIENTIFICALLY THINK THROUGH WHAT WE DO

We are overcoming now.

Stolen Election - What to do next

First I want to thank MSNBC’s Keith Olberman and the rest of the team for speaking up on the issue of election fraud. The government supplied numbers snakes are in your house, so I understand how difficult it is to stand up for the truth. But we must all stand up for the truth, like Edward R. Murrow did in London with the bombs going off around him. Stand and report the truth. Maybe now we can have an adult conversation for the need to invalidate the last election results or get an accurate count.

“NEW YORK— With news this morning that the computerized balloting in North Carolina is so thoroughly messed up that all state-wide voting may be thrown out and a second election day scheduled, the story continues.

Tonight (11/10/04) on 'Countdown,' we'll examine the N.C. mess (which would not include a second presidential vote), new fuzzy math in Nevada, allegations against the Democrats in Pennsylvania, Ralph Nader's news conference, and the other voting developments as they occur. A Stanford computer expert will address the vulnerability of the Optical Scanning system (and answer the question: which is easier to hack, electronic voting or exit polls?), and Newsweek's Jonathan Alter will join me to report on the reporting.”

More deeply, I am grateful to the independent media folks especially, as I'm sure Olberman is, for keeping this subject front and center so that, despite the reports of extra killing in Iraq to keep the media busy, the problem of an inaccurate election must be solved.

For verification, try this if you haven’t already. Do a web search on "Stolen election" in a news search engine. The results are not what they were reported to be, and the red states and the blue states are not as different as this analysis of lies are reporting.

I lived in NYC from '72-'98 and will always love New York. I've lived in AZ for 5 years now as a self-defined refugee from the Giuliani administration. Arizona and other red states did not vote the way we have been led to believe. Because we don't know who won is what's troubling me. Remember election night? The news announced Bush won over Kerry in Arizona before they could call the numbers off the voting machines, let alone the last voter voted.

Add to that the early voting numbers, which were large, and the only way they could have predicted the win for Bush is to use pre-supplied numbers. It stinks to high heaven, maybe beyond. Time to shine the light of truth.

I want to assure my brothers and sisters in the “blue” states that we in the “red” states did not vote for that man in the ways the media originally reported. They are trying the old divide and conquer because they think we are stupid. They’ve given us false data to think on.

We’re suppose to believe that the people re-elected the man on whose watch 9/11 occurred. It affected us too. I’ve had many conversations and the majority of folks out here are not stupid. It’s a myth. The will of the American people is crying for great, positive change that moves us in the direction of world peace and prosperity for all. We want a clean environment. Money is not more important than health. Check out Einstein’s MESSAGE FOR POSTERITY. We have enough to take care of all. It’s the fear based system that is broken and requires immediate attention. We are truly on the wrong path.

To the blue states and the world please know that this election, based on results, does not reflect the will of the American people. Too many “mistakes” were made in favor of the president for us to pretend not to know what was tried here. Karl Rowe was a bit too confident in the results the night before the election.

Please encourage the DNC, RNC, League of Women Voters and other elected and appointed officials, groups, spiritual gatherings and folks to speak up on this bogus election.

GIVEN NEW EVIDENCE PRESENTED CONCERNING ELECTION PROBLEMS, DEMAND EVERY VOTE BE ACCOUNTED FOR - OR INVALIDATE THAT ELECTION.

We can count a dollar down to the penny, but we can't count votes?????

Here’s a few things I found about what folks are doing, or should do, about this election fraud.

1. SEND A MESSAGE – SPEND LESS
“The Grand Refusal Is Launched!
CITIZENS FOR LEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT
Pittsburgh, PA: November 7, 2004
CONTACT: Michael Rectenwald, Ph.D. and Lori Price,
Citizens For Legitimate Government is calling for the Grand Refusal to begin!! Stage one: Do not consume at normal levels; consume less. Do not purchase any entertainment. Do not buy any surplus goods or other major purchases. Only do what you have to do to survive. And, get others involved. Help get Citizens For Legitimate Government's Grand Refusal Coalition in motion. Help build the Grand Refusal! Stand by for stage 2. Once we reach critical mass, we will launch stage 2. “
Vote Fraud - Exit Polls Vs Actuals

2. Kerry May have won this election From No Stolen Elections!
“To: Urgent Response Network - Sisters and Brothers,
While hundreds of thousands of votes in Ohio have yet to be counted and reports of voter disenfranchisement throughout the country - particularly among minority, immigrant, young, and low-income Americans - continue to pour-in and questions are left to be answered about the massive gap between early polling data and the final total in Florida - a state where half of the voting populous used touch-screen machines that leave no paper trail, John Kerry just conceded the presidential election.
KERRY MAY HAVE CONCEDED THIS ELECTION, BUT WE WILL NEVER CONCEDE OUR RIGHT TO A FAIR AND JUST DEMOCRATIC PROCESS! “

3. "If Another Election Is Stolen, Let's Boycott Major US Media"
From The Baltimore Chronicle.com

“Even though foreign and military policies of Bush and Kerry are disturbingly similar, a survey of 35 countries shows 30 want Kerry to replace Bush in the White House, and by large margins. This news was received with shock, awe and derision by US celebrity media pundits, who--if they mentioned the poll at all--said its respondents were obviously "ignorant." Characteristically, this poll was totally ignored by TV news.
"Why was it ignored?" you might ask. The answer is that issues as defined, analyzed and disseminated by US corporate media are different than those discussed elsewhere. A strong case can be made, in fact, that, for more than two decades, these media outlets have been intent on tilting our framework for news understanding to the political right. When was the last time you saw academics have a free and open discussion on TV? Thirty years? It's been at least that long since "liberals" (we put the word in quotes to denote its dictionary meaning, because it has become so maligned in public discourse that it no longer connotes that meaning) had significant presence on television and prominence in major newspaper OpEd pages.”

4. From the Berkley Daily Planet.com - Another Stolen Election: By JAMES K. SAYRE
COMMENTARY (11-09-04)

“The exit polls that showed a sweeping victory for Sen. Kerry on Nov. 2 were right. Unfortunately, the 2004 presidential election was cleanly stolen by Bush & Co. How, you say? With the help of Diebold, ES&S, Sequoia and SAIC, four interlocked secretive right-wing electronic voting machine manufacturers. We have entrusted the most important election task, that of actually counting and tabulating the vote totals to extremist organizations with secret proprietary vote-counting computer software with no auditable paper trail for hand recounts. How very convenient, how very clean, how very slick and with all the evidence of election rigging is buried deep on their computer hard drives.
Sen. Kerry won a landslide victory by between two million and five million votes. The pre-election public opinion polls pointed to a large and growing Kerry election day majority and the election day exit polls also indicated a Kerry victory. Unfortunately, theocratic extremely right-wing computer election machine manufacturing corporations were in charge of “counting” the votes of millions and millions of Americans. Some how, a few million Kerry votes didn’t get counted and a few million bogus Bush votes showed up in the final election tallies and voila, a Bush “victory.”
Democracy in 21st century America has been kidnapped and destroyed by extreme right-wing control of the new secret computerized electronic vote counting systems. Verifiable hand-counted paper ballots are the only way to restore legitimate elections in America. “

5. From The Wilderness.com reports The Triumph of the Bush Machines -

“But there is one overriding fact that has been left out most of the ridiculous post-election punditry that renders all other analyses completely irrelevant. It is also the reason why the smiles on the faces of Bush crime family members are so bright, as they watched the returns on election night.
Air America Radio's Mike Malloy gave the most succinct and passionate explanation in his Wednesday, November 3, 2004, program [my links included-LC]:
"The American vote count is controlled by three major corporate players, Diebold, ESS, Sequoia, and a fourth, SAIC, Science Applications International. All four are hard-wired into the Bush power structure, the Bush crime family.
"They have been given millions of dollars by the Bush regime to complete a sweeping computerization of voting machines that were just used in the 2004 election. The technology involved had a trial run during the 2002 mid-term elections. Georgia had Diebold machines in every precinct. As a result, a popular Democratic governor and senator were both unseated in what the media called an "amazing" 16 percent swing.
"Diebold's Walden O'Dell, a top Bush fundraiser, publicly committed himself to delivering his home state Ohio's votes to Bush. At Diebold, the election division is run by Bob Urosevich. Bob's brother, Todd, is a top executive at "rival" ES&S. The brothers were originally staked by Howard Ahmanson, a member of the Council For National Policy, a right-wing steering group stacked with Bush true believers. Ahmanson is also one of the bagmen behind the extremist Christian Reconstruction Movement, which advocates the theocratic takeover of American democracy.
"The four companies are interconnected; they are not four "competitors". Ahmanson has large stakes in ES&S, whose former CEO was Republican Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska. When Hagel ran for office, his own company counted the votes, and his victory was considered "an amazing upset". Hagel still has a million dollar stake in ES&S.
"Sequoia is the corporate parent of a private equity firm, Madison Dearborn, which is partner in the Carlyle Group. (Also see here.)”

6. Never Say Die-bold: So You Don’t Think the Bush Campaign Stole This Election? Think Again -by guest writer Jackson Thoreau

If you’re looking for one word to sum up the way the Bush-Cheney campaign stole another election Tuesday besides obvious ones like “cheated,” try this one: Diebold.
An election judge where I voted Tuesday in a heavily Democratic precinct in Maryland knows what that means and wasn’t adverse to sharing his opinion of the Republican-owned company. As I was about to vote with the electronic system, I asked this judge if they had a way to check people’s votes through a paper backup.
The official said no, and then in a low voice so no one else would hear, added, “And that really makes us nervous, with Diebold as the owner of that system.”
Goodbye, hanging chads. Hello, computer fraud that leaves no trace, no chads hanging.
Diebold Inc. of North Canton, Ohio, supplied scores of machines and counted millions of votes Tuesday, while reportedly discarding many votes for Democrat John Kerry, according to British investigative reporter Gregory Palast. Walden O’Dell, chief executive of Diebold and a top fundraiser for the Bush campaign, wrote in a fund-raising letter last year that he was “committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year.”
That he did.

When I was in high school back in the 1960’s we had a typing drill we use to do.

NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL GOOD MEN TO COME TO THE AID OF THEIR COUNTRY.

Or the politically correct way of saying it

NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL GOOD PEOPLE TO COME TO THE AID OF THEIR COUNTRY AND WORLD.

Stolen Election - Gathering Evidence

Now the evidence is mounting that the 2004 Presidential election was corrupted by the special interests that want to continue war, throwing more people into harm's way, and controlling every aspect of our lives.

1. MSNBC Reports Machine glitch gave Bush extra Ohio votes
Officials say 3,893-vote error did not affect state result
The Associated Press
Updated: 9:17 p.m. ET Nov. 5, 2004

"Problems in North Carolina, California - In one North Carolina county, more than 4,500 votes were lost in Tuesday’s election because officials mistakenly believed a computer that stored ballots electronically could hold more data than it did.

And in San Francisco, a voting software malfunction could delay efforts to declare the winners of four county supervisor races.

In the Gahanna precinct, multiple copies of each ballot were recorded: two on the machine and three to a removable cartridge, said Matthew Damschroder, director of the Franklin County Board of Elections. When voting ends, each cartridge is taken to one of five zones in the county, where the results were loaded into a laptop. Those results were transferred by secure data lines to the county."


2. Dirty Election: From Bellaciao.org

Friday 5th November 2004 :

Too many voting ’irregularities’ to be coincidence

"Isn’t it strange that all of these ’anomalies’ in the exit polls and touchscreen machines always seem to favor Bush? There were many similar reports after the 2002 congressional elections, when the Republicans took control of Congress (which the evil cabal needed to prevent a real 911 investigation and to start the war free of consequences)."


3. Tompaine.com reports that Kerry won in Ohio and New Mexico.

"Most voters in Ohio thought they were voting for Kerry. At 1:05 a.m. Wednesday morning, CNN's exit poll showed Kerry beating Bush among Ohio women by 53 percent to 47 percent. The exit polls were later combined with—and therefore contaminated by—the tabulated results, ultimately becoming a mirror of the apparent actual vote. [To read about the skewing of exit polls to conform to official results, click here .] Kerry also defeated Bush among Ohio's male voters 51 percent to 49 percent. Unless a third gender voted in Ohio, Kerry took the state.

So what's going on here? Answer: the exit polls are accurate. Pollsters ask, "Who did you vote for?" Unfortunately, they don't ask the crucial, question, "Was your vote counted?" The voters don't know.

Here's why. Although the exit polls show that most voters in Ohio punched cards for Kerry-Edwards, thousands of these votes were simply not recorded. This was predictable and it was predicted. [See TomPaine.com, "An Election Spoiled Rotten," November 1.]"


4. From CounterBias.com "The Case For Fraud"

"Here are grounds for suspicion. Electronic voting machines figured heavily in the final tabulation of the results in Ohio, Florida, and New Mexico. Moreover, in all three, paper audit trails do not exist. These states therefore offered the best, safest opportunity for manipulation of the final count."


5. The News-Dispatch "Computer glitch still baffles county clerk" By Kristin Miller, Michigan City, Indiana

"LaPORTE - The day after a two-and-a-half-hour delay in counting ballots due to a glitch in a computer program, LaPorte County election officials are still trying to figure out what happened.

"Maybe there was a power surge," LaPorte County Clerk Lynne Spevak said. "Something zapped it."

At about 7 p.m. Tuesday, it was noticed that the first two or three printouts from individual precinct reports all listed an identical number of voters. Each precinct was listed as having 300 registered voters.
That means the total number of voters for the county would be 22,200, although there are actually more than 79,000 registered voters."
6. Las Cruces Sun-News: County set to certify vote
By Heath HaussamenNov 7, 2004, 07:30 am
"The Doña Ana County Board of Commissioners is tentatively scheduled to certify the county’s election results Tuesday, but not before a Monday protest by local residents who accuse the clerk’s office of election fraud.Las Crucen Ron Nesler has organized the protest. At noon Monday, he and others will drive around the county courthouse honking their horns “to protest election fraud on the part of the Doña Ana County Clerk’s office,” according to an e-mail to the Sun-News from Nesler.“Others will be on foot at the entrance to the county courthouse with picket signs demanding fair and open election procedures,” Nesler wrote in a posting on LCWatch.com, a local citizen’s group Web site."
JACKSONVILLE, N.C. - Several N.C. counties reported problems with voting, including Carteret, where more than 4,000 early votes were lost because the electronic voting system could not store the volume of votes it received.

It was unknown what effect the problem would have on local or state voting results or what action the state Board of Elections might take. Two statewide races, for superintendent of public instruction and agriculture commissioner, remained unresolved and too close to call Thursday.
In Carteret, the county was told by the manufacturer of the voting system that its units could store up to 10,500 votes, but the limit was actually 3,005 votes."
---

What makes this election so important is the needs of world peace and healing are not being met by the current administration. We have a half century of war as action and reaction. Please read - Rogue Superpower and take a stand for peace. It begins within each of us.

"But the truth is: from Hiroshima to Vietnam to Iraq, the United States of America has been the biggest and most ruthless perpetrator of bombings in the world."

Peace on earth to men of good will.

Stolen Election Again?

I feel there is a problem with this election. It stinks to high heaven. We can track a dollar down to the penny but we have been told we can't track a vote.

If the vote count starts at poll closing time plus when the last voter votes, how did the media begin to call numbers for entire states shortly after closing time? The machines could not have been open as fast as the networks were calling off numbers. Counting the votes, especially those who voted a week or so earlier, could not have been done in that short a time.

And what happened to the media's standard of not reporting election results until everyone in the country voted from Maine to California?

I live in Arizona. The Secretary of State’s office has posted “unofficial” election results on the web. According to the posting, nobody in the state of Arizona voted for Ralph Nader. Not one of the reported 40,000 votes cast for Nader came from Arizona?

I understand the gentleman’s agreement between two members of Skull & Bones not to fight over this, but we the people need to make sure our vote was counted. (I still love and appreciate John Kerry and his crew, but Kerry never did address the Skull & Bones conflict of interest).

We have until the Electoral College meets for folks to demand a verification of their vote. A simple citizens request from each voter that demands verification of their vote being counted.

Don't Deny...Verify .

If we don't pretend not to know (deny) there could be a problem here, we can fix it by each one verifying their vote. Simply ask to confirm that a citizen's vote is counted. It’s the only way to confirm that computer programming alterations were not pulled in some places to weigh the vote in favor of one candidate over another.

The will of the government has superseded the will of the people for too long. It’s clearly time to restore intelligence to government.

Let me know what you think.

It isn't over until the Electoral College sings.
