gonna float fraud idea to my college dems....

[ccarter84]

I am setting up a meeting with the secretary of our campus's college dems (we were 300 strong...dunno bout now) who sounded interested in the fraud topic on the phone, and for the life of me I can only come up with a rough outline of the fraud cuz i've been reading about it and studying for 2 months...but I can't organize things in a manner that I think would speak to such a group.

what I have so far:
I have grouped things in categories such as
pre-election fraud
--fake fliers, partisan registration drives destroy dem registrants, proven GOTV jamming by former regional Bush campaign manager.

during election fraud/suppression
-lack of sufficient voting machines ==long lines== seem to strangely coincide with democratic precincts
-threats of car towing /ticketing for ppl who had ot wait in line to vote for multiple hours
-combined precincts lead to confusion...etc etc.
-common errors which tend to have a kerry vote mysteriously go for bush in front of the persons eyes

hackability (word madeup?) of the vote
computers left networked, easily hacked, unpatched windows OS
I've studied the videos on the Diebold GEMS software, got some clips off bit torrent for that, and the fact that diebold for example uses DES encryption which was cracked in 1997

and Exit polls
where to begin with these things...well they are used by germany to declare winner, since all ballots are paper, and it takes them a week to count. Other countries have used them to accurately determine whether fraud has taken place by how far they match or don't. UKRAINE *cough cough* sorry frog in my throat...just don't mention exit polls to venezuela apparently they had a similar problem to us...but I digress
mainly i'll just bring in some key talking points from Freeman's exit polling article which covers some of that mentioned above and much more.

so I need more suggestions, and i'll keep you guys updated
thanks
