VOTING FRAUD

taken from another board

This is from my friend Ignacio, he's legit, and not paranoid in the least.
please repost this everywhere you go!

Body: Read on....

Yesterday a friend voted early at a polling location in Austin.
She voted straight Democratic. When she did the final check, lo and behold every vote was for the Democratic candidates except that it showed she had voted for Bush/Cheney for president/vice pres. She immediately got a poll official. On her vote, it was corrected. She called the Travis County Democratic headquarters.
They took all her information, and told her that she wasn't the first to report a similar incident and that they are looking into it. So check before you leave the polling booth, and if anything is wrong, get it corrected immediately. Report any irregularities to your local Democratic headquarters.

Make sure you pass this along to your friends ... hopefully this is all over the airwaves by tomorrow ...

The Texas voting fraud is for real.
I called the Austin office (Dem. Nat. Comm.) 512-637-1737 and they said that it has been happening a lot. They don't know why but the machines seem more "sensitive" this year and that every voter MUST check their summary as the presidential choice often rolls over to the republican choice if you vote straight democrat.

Before you call the Dem Nat Comm also try calling these guys:
866-OURVOTE , there are laywers sitting on the other side, they are partisan and will deff mobilize local people to look into ANY irregularities, this also means anything strange or suspicious you may see at the polls. Remember, they did it to us last time, they may do it again

and i just began hearing a story on NPR about vote fraud allegations in Florida.

The thing in Florida has to do with 60,000 absentee ballots "getting lost" whatever that means.

Anyway, they are working to correct the problem by re-mailing the ballots, some even being sent overnight.

In one Ohio county, there are more registered voters than there are people old enough to be registered! Given the statistic that only something like half of people who could be registered actually are, this is pretty alarming. . .

The situation runs pretty deeply, I happen to have seen a lot more notices of Democrats pushing fraud than Republicans because of my news/opinion sources, but you'd have to be a fool to believe it's not happening all over the place.

It would have been laughably easy for me to vote twice in this year's election. I live in Michigan currently (going to school), but getting an absentee ballot for MD, where I'm usually registered, wouldn't have been a problem at all. Of course, I didn't do it, and two votes isn't fraud on the level that we're going to see this year, but to think people would still oppose a law that says you have to show ID when you arrive to vote. . .kind of makes me worried for the future direction of our country

Ok here is my issue. Does anyone in this country give a crap about their vote? If you do, you check it, you double check it, and you make sure. You can best believe if I look at my ballot and it says anything but what I want it to, I don't shrug my shoulders toss it in the box and walk out the door. Pay attention people and give a crap and all this stuff is avoided.
