Cheney sacked and returns to old job

cheney2.jpg, image/jpeg, 400x300

Cheney loses election after insulting voters by saying, "It doesn't matter what they say about the war or anything else because we will continue to do what we like whether right or wrong ... We're not running for office, we’re just trying to stay out of jail."

With no intention of running for it , Cheney is seeking to stop impeachment of Bush and criminal charges against himself and Rumy for their many crimes while in office.

"The choice before the American people is becoming more clear every day," Cheney said. "For the sake of the security of Rumy and myself, this nation must reject any proper and sensible strategy on anything and vote us back in control of Congress."

diebold_15a.jpg, image/jpeg, 270x378

Analysis of the polling data vs actual data and voting systems supports the hypothesis that evoting may be to blame in the discrepancies. Nevada has evoting but with verified receipts. In that state the Exit Polling matches the actual results within .1% accuracy. However for other swing states Bush has unexplainable leads.

I'm still compiling data. Please help me determine what voting methods are being used in swing states and which are evoting without audit trails. Post your data under the individual state responses below.

-------------------------------------------

Kerry is well ahead in exit polls, but still losing the counts. WTH is going on?

Kerry is well ahead in Exit Polling in Ohio. We're being screwed.

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/states/OH/P/00/index.html

Male: 51/49 Kerry 47%

Female: 53/47 Kerry 53%

Dem: 91/8 Kerry 38%

Rep: 94/6 Bush 37%

Ind: 60/39 Kerry 24%



Here is exit polling for Florida (3,824,794 votes for Kerry & Bush)

hhttp://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/states/FL/P/00/index.html

Male: 52/47 Kerry 46%

Female: 52/48 Kerry 54%

Dem: 86/13 Kerry 38%

Rep: 92/7 Bush 39%

Ind: 60/38 Kerry 23%

3,824,794 votes for Kerry & Bush

2065388 Women (54% of total)

1759405 Men (46% of total)

Bush leads male vote by 5% of M = 87970

Kerry leads female vote by 4% of M = 82615

That means Bush is ahead by just 5355 votes in exit polling in FL.

Another odd thing is that there are more Reps then Dems in Florida by 1%, which is not expected. Either there are more voting Republicans in FL than Democrats, a first and not matching known statistics, or more Republicans were exit polled than Democrats. If the exit poll is off by just 1% that's a difference of 382479 more voters who are Democracts.

The results being posted however show Bush ahead 326,000 actual votes. This is simply not possible from the exit polling numbers. Even skewed for a 5% higher Republican vs. Democrat turnout from 2000, it doesn't add up.



WISCONSIN:

Kerry leads Female voters by 7%, Bush leads male voters by 7%. Male vs. Female voter turnout is 47% M, 53% F. That means Kerry statistically has a 7% edge in exit polling in Wisconsin.

Actual results however show Bush ahead by 1%, an unexplained difference of 8%.

NEVADA:

Just checked, same pattern. Kerry leads in the exit polls by a clear margin, but is still behind in the reported results. This state is even closer. Actual is just 1% favor of Bush. Exit polls show Kerry with a wider margin. Women favored Kerry by 8% here out of 52% of total voters. Men favored Bush by just 6% out of 48% of total voters. Actual reported results don't match exit polling AT ALL in Nevada.

*** KERRY leads by 1.3% in exit polls in NV ***



Can someone determine what percentage of precincts are DIEBOLD or electronic voting machines in these swing states? Of those compare the expected voting results from Male vs. Female against the results reported by electronic vs. non-electronic voting places.

My HYPOTHESIS is we will find a discrepancy in the electronic systems vs. the exit polls and the non-electronic systems.

I'll explain it for all of those whose brains have been paralyzed by their own creeping paranoia....all the exit polls erroneously showed Kerry winning for a very obvious and well known reason.....the actual number of Democrat voters who actually go to the polls to vote on election day is higher than the number of Republicans because more Republicans have already voted early or absentee....thus the polling sample of voters questioned by the exit pollers is naturally going to be skewed toward the Democrats....and this assumes no bias or dishonesty etc by the exit pollers themselves....the Dems got chumped by their own meme when they started whining about how exit polls showing Kerry ahead meant he actually won.....

2 brothers own 80 % of the voting machines in the U.S.

by hex Monday, Nov. 06, 2006 at 2:56 AM

Perhaps, after a half-century of fine-tuning exit polling to such a science that it's now used to verify if elections are clean in Third World countries, it really did suddenly become inaccurate in the United States in the past few years and just won't work here anymore. Perhaps it's just a coincidence that the sudden rise of inaccurate exit polls happened around the same time corporate-programmed, computer-controlled, modem-capable voting machines began recording and tabulating ballots.

As the Washington Post noted in a January 20, 2005 article by Richard Morin and Claudia Deane ("Report Acknowledges Inaccuracies in 2004 Exit Polls"):

"But 'there were 26 states in which the estimates produced by the exit poll data overstated the vote for John Kerry....' said Joe Lenski of Edison Media Research and Warren Mitofsky of Mitofsky International.

"Throughout election night, the national exit poll showed the Massachusetts senator leading President Bush by 51 percent to 48 percent. But when all the votes were counted, it was Bush who won by slightly less than three percentage points."

Mitofsky and Edison's work also showed that Ohio was one of the states where the discrepancies between the official tabulation and the exit polls were most noticeable. The Washington Post noted: "At the request of the media sponsors, Mitofsky and Lenski are continuing to examine exit polling in Ohio and Pennsylvania, two critical battleground states where the poll results were off."

When four attorneys in Ohio sued that state to discover details of how voting was conducted in that state, they report they were slapped with a massive and expensive lawsuit engineered by the State of Ohio's Secretary of State, Ken Blackwell (also co-chair of the Ohio Bush For President campaign) and Ohio Attorney General, Republican Jim Petro.



Oddly, though, as statistics experts Steven Freeman and Josh Mittledorf noted in an article for In These Times, analyzing the data provided by exit polling companies Mitofsky and Edison, "only in precincts that used old-fashioned, hand-counted paper ballots did the official count and the exit polls fall within the normal sampling margin of error." In those places where computers were used to count the vote, oddly the exit polls showed Kerry winning but the voting machines had Bush winning.



Thus, say these two university experts: "The exit polls themselves are a strong indicator of a corrupted election."

This analysis comes just as Bev Harris' organization www.blackboxvoting.org provided testimony to the House Judiciary Committee, as reported on their website:

"In mid-February, Black Box Voting, together with computer experts and videographers, under the supervision of appropriate officials, proved that a real Diebold system can be hacked.

"This was not theoretical or a 'potential' vulnerability. Votes were hacked on a real system in a real location using the actual setup used on Election Day, Nov. 2, 2004.

"In October, Black Box Voting published an article on this Web site about remote access into the Diebold system. After examining the Diebold software and related internal e-mails, local security professionals were able to demonstrate a hack into a simulated system.

"In February, we were allowed to try various hacking techniques into a real election system. To our surprise, the method used in our October simulation did not work.

"However, another method did work. The hack that did work was unsophisticated enough that many high school students would be able to achieve it. This hack altered the election by 100,000 votes, leaving no trace at all in the central tabulator program. It did not appear in any audit log. The hack could have been executed in the November 2004 election by just one person.

"This hack stunned the officials who were observing the test. It calls into question the results of as many as 40 million votes in 30 states.





Computer programmer Clinton Curtis charged, in a sworn affidavit before a U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee investigation in Ohio, that Republican Congressman Tom Feeney of Florida participated in hiring Curtis to write "undetectable" (when compiled) voting-machine-rigging software. Republicans in the House have also blocked efforts to investigate this and other charges made during hearing held in Ohio by Congressman John Conyers.

amazingly smart Republicans

by hex Monday, Nov. 06, 2006 at 3:29 AM

In precincts that used old-fashioned, hand-counted paper ballots the official count and the exit polls matched within .1 %

BUT in those places where computers were used to count the vote, the exit polls showed Kerry winning but the voting machines had Bush winning by 5 to 8 %



SO according to Robin's explaination, Republicans only cast early & absentee ballots in areas where electronic voting machines were used but no Republicans AT ALL did so in areas where old-fashioned, hand-counted paper ballots were used.

Somehow all the Republicans knew well in advance all the areas where all the electronic voting machines would be used - and only cast early & absentee ballots in such areas..

And all the areas where old-fashioned, hand-counted paper ballots were used so that *none* of the Republicans cast early & absentee ballots in those places.



And CNN changed the exit poll numbers *in the middle of the night long after the polls had closed* to match the electronic voting machine numbers *for no reason*

-In the 2000 election, it was only through a combination of Jim Crow vote suppression tactics and a rich array of different methods of vote-count fraud that George W. Bush was able to arrive at a point at which his father's Supreme Court appointees could push through what has been appropriately described as a judicial coup d'état. His party won control of the Senate in 2002 through what was almost certainly vote-tabulation fraud.3 The 2004 presidential election was marked by fraud on a gigantic scale, not just in Ohio, which ended up being the deciding state, but in many other states as well: by January 2005 there was compelling evidence to show that had the votes been honestly counted, John Kerry would have defeated Bush by a commanding margin.-

anyone who passed even basic grade school science knows this :)

the measurements don't lie though flakes on the internet do

Sea water DOES contain twice the fluorine

Sea salt has a bunch of it in it (concentrated) - people eat sea salt as a healthy alternative to regular mined salt...

Seaweed is quite salty and also has a lot of fluorine in it - typically it's encrusted with sea salt...

All seafood has fluorine in it too, fish, clams, lobster, shrimp, etc , etc



and some people's wells have very high (compared to fluorination) levels due to natural geological features

I suppose they are "super mind controlled" then :)
