6. What do WE THE PEOPLE have to freakin' do to see the raw data?
This is getting ridiculous. We all sat there on Nov 2nd and watched state after state go towards Kerry. Not just the hotly contested swing states such as OH, but even some of the states they thought were a * lock. I remember sitting with some friends in a bar in Kansas City and cheering wildy (about 75% of the bar anyway) when the MO results came up and showed Kerry ahead! We were so pumped because in the final 6-8 weeks of the campaign, the Dems had given up any hope they would win the state and backed off. I wrote them and told them to stick with it because I was seeing K/E stuff everywhere. I also remember Chris Matthews live that night saying that it looked as though Virginia would go to Kerry and if that happened, it was going to be a very long night for *. So, it wasn't just swing states going to Kerry. He was winning in a fairly substantial way. Also, I can remember around 10PM CST that night that they showed line after line - around the block - in Ohio still waiting to vote. NONE OF THESE LINES WERE IN REPUG districts, yet somehow this is the time that the vote swung for *? How in the fuck does that happen? Kerry's lead should have gotten larger.
