There were vote-counting computers in Cuyahoga county in Ohio that were deemed "broken" and some republican Diebold tech wiped the memory. I remember watching the local news stories on it. Some precincts had 400% of the registered voters voting for Bush. Huge obvious democratic areas going for Bush. And absolutely none that were supposed to go Bush that went Kerry.

It was rigged, no doubt at all.

Watch out this time: It's not the Bush crime family, but they're pissed off enough to try it again.
