A disturbing article by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. about alleged miscounts, disenfranchisement and fraud in the state of Ohio during the 2004 Presidential election. In the interests of full disclosure I admit to swinging left so am inclined to believe that not everything was above board. And I imagine that to some people, the fact this was written by a Kennedy and published in Rolling Stone is reason enough to dismiss the allegations. However, the article is full of copious footnotes referencing credible sources.

The most disturbing thing to me is the fact that, regardless of whether or not it turns out to be true, there is enough evidence to merit further investigation and reportage by the news media and yet that's not happening.

Well i heard that the first time bush got in the exit polls were out by 15% (That's when they ask people who they voted for after they come out from voting)

This is the first time ever that the exit polls have been out by more than a few percent. In a democracy this would have lead to an investigation. In a dictatorship it wouldn't.

He stole it, well that's what was reported to the rest of the world

The American media has a huge conservative bias. They convinced the people to vote for Bush, and are helping him cover up a massive nationwide voter fraud conspiracy.

They weren't merely miscounts, disenfranchisements, and fraud in the 2004 elections. There were full blown alleged miscounts, disenfranchisements, and fraud.

Next time he will probably rig the exit polls than. Should be a cinch, since I'm sure they are a lot easier to rig than the real election.

I'm more curious to see what's going to happen this time around. Cheney is unelectable.

Personally, I wouldn't be shocked if Bush tries to find some way to stay in office for longer.

I wonder if the "Get Hillary Nominated Because America Will Never Elect A Woman" plan will work.

I think that's the only way that the Republicans have a shot.

Though this is one of the very few situations where a woman would ever get elected either.
