Florida Election software Flips Vote: Losers Certified as Winners

64. I don't know...

...the name of the vendor whose machines are in question, but if it's the one that Diebold morphed into you can bet it's rigged. They first 'field-tested' their ability to 'flip' votes with their electronic voting machines back in '02 when they got both Max Cleland and our Democratic Governor Roy Barnes. Both had comfortable leads going into voting day only to see a 10-15 point swing from the pre-vote polls and the 'recorded' vote. Insider info later revealed that it was an 'open' secret that Diebold management, who later vowed to get Bush reflected in '04, had had a last-minute 'patch' installed that later was reported to have an internal - to Diebold - label of 'Rob Georgia'. One of the problems with exposing this election theft, even though Diebold changed the name of their voting machine arm to avoid the rub off of any potential bad publicity to the parent company - or vice-versa - was that Georgia's Secretary of State, a Zell Miller protege and (true) Blue Dog Dem, Kathy Cox, had overseen the commitment to Diebold, and never would admit that she had been responsible for handing the state over to Republicans...then again, maybe Zell had already 'gone rogue'. Plus she had turned the administration on the roll-out and oversight of the machines to Diebold staffers - save a couple on her regular staff that soon after took jobs with Diebold - can you say 'hush-money job'?

Face it folks, Republicans and their corporate handlers will do and say anything to win...and we're too wimpy to stand up to em.
