What You Can Do
To Stop Vote Fraud
August 17, 2006

"However
[political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely
in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning,
ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of
the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying
afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."
George Washington, the Father of our Country
As regular
readers of my columns know, I have been relentless on the vote fraud issue.
My crusade actually started back in 1993 and slowly, but surely, the American
people are coming to realize that the one non violent mechanism the Founding
Fathers gave us to remove rotten, corrupt political animals from office,
the ballot box, has been thoroughly compromised. If you are new to this
issue, my columns on vote fraud are
archived here.
Par
for the course, the media, both cable and "mainstream" (ABC, CBS, NBC),
all anchored or hosted by high paid mouthpieces to provide viewers with
all the news that's fit to fake and withhold what they don't feel you
need to know, are no where to be found. The one exception at this
point in time is Lou Dobbs, but unfortunately, his ratings never even
come close to the "big" three propaganda networks. Lou did cover this
issue on August 14, 2006; transcript
here. Did you know you can buy components and actual voting machines
on E-Bay? Read the transcript cited above.
However,
because of the Internet and all the dedicated folks out there from all
parties and walks of life, the picture has finally come together so even
hardened skeptics can see we have no idea who is truly being elected.
Vote fraud via stuffing ballot boxes has been around a long time, but
beginning in the early 1960s with the advancement of technology, today
it's a cake walk with machines. I get e-mail all the time from buffoons
whose entire vocabulary consists of the F word and other colorful language
accusing me of being a "right winger" out to get the Democratic Party.
Vote fraud isn't about party loyalty, it's about fairness and the integrity
of our election process and besides, I haven't belonged to any political
party since 1996. These are new since my last column:
Analysis
finds e-voting machines vulnerable 6/26/2006
"By
Andrea Stone, USA TODAY/WASHINGTON — Most of the electronic voting machines
widely adopted since the disputed 2000 presidential election "pose a real
danger to the integrity of national, state and local elections," a report
out Tuesday concludes. There are more than 120 security threats to the
three most commonly purchased electronic voting systems, the study by
the Brennan Center for Justice says. For what it calls the most comprehensive
review of its kind, the New York City-based non-partisan think tank convened
a task force of election officials, computer scientists and security experts
to study e-voting vulnerabilities."
GAO
report upholds Ohio vote fraud claims By Joe Baker, Senior Editor
"As
if the indictment of Lewis "Scooter" Libby wasn't enough to give the White
House some heavy concerns, a report from the Government Accounting Office
takes a big bite out of the Bush cliques pretense of legitimacy. This
powerful and probing report takes a hard look at the election of 2004
and supports the contention that the election was stolen. The report has
received almost no coverage in the national media. The GAO is the government's
lead investigative agency, and is known for rock-solid integrity and its
penetrating and thorough analysis. The agency's agreement with what have
been brushed aside as "conspiracy theories" adds even more weight to the
conclusion that the Bush regime has no business in the White House whatever."
A
Single Person Could Swing an Election Electronic Systems' Weaknesses
May Be Countered With Audits, Report Suggests Special to The Washington
Post/June 28, 2006
"To
determine what it would take to hack a U.S. election, a team of cybersecurity
experts turned to a fictional battleground state called Pennasota and
a fictional gubernatorial race between Tom Jefferson and Johnny Adams.
It's the year 2007, and the state uses electronic voting machines. Jefferson
was forecast to win the race by about 80,000 votes, or 2.3 percent of
the vote. Adams's conspirators thought, "How easily can we manipulate
the election results? The experts thought about all the ways to do it.
And they concluded in a report issued yesterday that it would take only
one person, with a sophisticated technical knowledge and timely access
to the software that runs the voting machines, to change the outcome.
Manual
Hand Count Requested in Busby/Bilbray Race! Registrar Quotes Fees
for Count as High as $130,000! BradBlog.com/07 July 2006
"A 'Buck
a Vote' for hand count of paper ballots, trails in US house election which
used uncertified voting machines ... fees far exceed those charged by
other counties....The request is for a full manual hand count of all paper
ballots and paper trails in the recent June 6th Busby/Bilbray special
U.S. House election in which programmed, election-ready Diebold voting
machines were sent home with poll workers for days prior to the election
in apparent violation of new laws and provisions by both state and federal
authorities."
California
Voters File New Motion of Preliminary Injunction in State Court to
Halt Use of Electronic Voting Systems Hearing to take place in time for
November election
"San
Francisco, CA, August 8, 2006 — California voters challenging the use
of Diebold touch screen voting systems today filed a motion for preliminary
injunction in San Francisco Superior Court, asking the Court to prohibit
purchase or use in California of Diebold Accuvote TSx electronic voting
machines for use in the November 2006 general election. A hearing on the
motion for preliminary injunction is expected on August 31, 2006. Defendants
in the case are Secretary of State Bruce McPherson and elections officials
in 11 California counties. Elections officials in eight other California
counties have been dismissed from the suit, after they signed affidavits
that they will not use Diebold touch screens for the November elections."
McPherson
is a Republican. When I allegedly lost my primary against Republican,
Waffle Wally Herger back in 1996, the Republican Secretary of State at
the time responded to my request for an investigation over vote fraud
with, "Sue the state if you don't like the outcome." I quit the GOP right
then and there. Republicans are running scared so now they're addressing
electronic vote fraud. Gee, ain't that swell?
We're
really faced with three problems regarding our elections: (1) corrupted
machines; (2) tainted voting rolls allowing illegals to vote; and (3)
uninformed voters. "What can I do"? I'm asked that all the time. My first
response is you will have to do as I have done for 16 long years: give
up your free time and dedicate yourself to getting the job done.
I do it seven days a week because it is my duty, my responsibility to
do my part in keeping this republic from going under. This republic is
worth saving for my daughter, your son, your mom, for all our people.
Blackboxvoting.org has done
a remarkable job by truly dedicated Americans giving up their "free" time
to really push this issue to the forefront and while the media continues
to ignore the elephant in the front room, they won't be able to much longer,
just like the 9/11 lies.
After
the pretend 2000 presidential race farce, the shadow government made sure
their carefully crafted debacle created enough outrage that people began
demanding "No more chads!" The planned solution: Get Congress to fund
and force all the states to use these evil machines for "fairness! by
Jove!" No more disenfranchised voters and the final steps of a total take
over of our precious right to elect our public servants was underway.
Classic Sun Tzu and the art of war: Make your enemy beg for their own
defeat and think it's a good idea. Here we are six years later with the
process honed to perfection to steal our future, our country and install
only those willing to continue cementing sustained development, the continued
sacking of the people's purse for TRILLIONS in unconstitutional spending,
more endless "wars of liberation," and the further shredding of the U.S.
Constitution - all in the name of the phony "war on terrorism."
Gid
rid of ALL electronic voting machines. The ONLY way to insure fair and
impartial elections is paper ballots, hand counted in the precincts in
front of the general public. So what if it takes a day or two? What's
the big hurry? I would rather lose by an accurate count cast by voters
- even if it took several days - than be cheated like I was via electronic
vote fraud. In the past, the American people didn't seem to mind waiting
a week to find out who became president as long as it was fair and the
true will of the American people. Those who want fast food style elections
have played right into the hands of the evil doers.
Blackboxvoting.org
has put together a comprehensive kit that YOU and those you know can use
to get the message out and how to do it. There's no cost to read this
document; see here.
You don't have to do everything on their list, but do what you can.
Many fine, patriotic Americans have mobility and health problems, but
it's critical to network and they can help get this issue out there to
every mailing list and keep multiplying the numbers. Attending a town
hall meeting and handing out a simple one page flyer on this issue as
I did both times I ran for Congress will help educate the general population
about these insidious machines. You're maybe talking ten bucks for flyers;
a small group can share the cost. It's time and man power on the front
lines that makes things happen. This is something most folks can do
and it WILL make a difference.
The
other BIG problem we have is uneducated voters on the issues. How
many Americans know anything about the underbelly of the new world order?
How many know anything other than the standard party drivel about "lower
taxes" and "tax cuts for the rich"? I received a letter recently from
an individual who was a strong supporter of the "fair tax." A friend gave
him Volume One of
my One for the Road CD series. He listened to Disk
2, not once but twice. Mr. Lawrence said he was amazed at the amount
of information that he would never have read on line because of time constraints.
He also conveyed how angry he is to have wasted so much time promoting
just another tool to enrich the bankers - the so called "fair"
tax. This average working American said the CDs were simply an amazing
way to get educated while driving, listening to during a flight or at
home on your CD player and wanted to thank me for making them available.
Neither
the Democratic/Communist
Party or the Republican party machines care about you or me, only
the advancement of totalitarian government. The power remains with the
people, but if they don't know the truth, we cannot expect our fellow
countrymen to stand up and throw rotten, corrupt, non responsive incumbents
out of office. Get
these CDs. Make copies of them and get them out to anyone who is interested.
I'm working on Volume III right now and it's going to be a killer.
