Familiar with the term "pink ballots"

KCTitus · 11-30-2000, 10:35 AM

Florida judge Jorge Labarga ordered Palm Beach county officials to open up the ballots for Judicial Watch’s inspection this past Monday. Election officials stymied Judicial Watch, but allowed the group on Tuesday to begin reviewing the ballots.
According to his independent auditors, Klayman said ballots reviewed so far show four areas of irregularities and possible fraud:
· The hand counts do not reconcile with the machine counts.
· Election officials used "pink ballots" – replacement ballots for paper ballots they said were destroyed by the machine. This allowed officials to fill out the ballots for the destroyed ballots.
· The canvassing board had no clear methodology when conducting the recount.
· Record keeping was so bad there is no record of who the canvassing committee awarded votes to from each of the questionable ballots.

You know what one of the silliest things I've heard or seen in regards to this election fiasco?

Today on TV they were actually showing news footage of the trucks with the ballots going to Tallahassee...the news media deemed it a true story to show footage of a truck going down the highway...not even a car chase...this is really ****ed.... :(

I would like to start a petition that would end the suffrage of all of those hard working citizens in Palm Beach County, it just isn't fair that they should go through this kind of turmoil and all the harsh feeling of being disenfranchised like this again.<BR>

58,
As if they are are somehow insuring the safe delivery of these sacred ballots. If the media really wanted to do some good they should have had cameras on the people doing the recount.

BIG DADDY
How foolish of me. They can't have Sore win if they did that.

Hey Big Daddy,

What recount didn't the media have cameras on? They certainly had cameras on for the manual recounts. I'd bet that at any given time, there were at least 2 major media cameras rolling. Florida is known for having some of the most open government operations in the country. The public is able to watch all kind of stuff there, so I'd be surprised if the machine recounts weren't also open to the media.

By the way, do you know anything about Judicial Watch? I only know that they've been described as a "conservative" group but I haven't heard one way or the other about their credibility. Of course, any organization that takes the time to monitor the activities of our government automatically gets the benefit of the doubt from me!

BD,

All hail the sacred ballots.....

I have a great idea...just disregard the entire state of Florida...pretend it didn't exist...invalidate the entire election in Florida...

Or better yet...leave things the way they are...that is...no president for the next four years...geez how bad could it be with choices like Bush and Gore...me thinks no prez would be better than these two idiots...sorry if I'm offending anyone...but the are both idiots...yes I voted for one of them but in retrospect I should have written in my own name... :mad:

LOL Mr. Dole, think we can e-mail this to Gore?...

11-30-2000, 11:27 AM

You think it would do any good?

KCTitus · 11-30-2000, 11:31 AM

58,
Give them both a gun and have a duel. 10 paces and we have a new president. I am still bias though and would want a Bush win. Imagine how ironic it would be to have Gore shot by the guns he keeps trying to take away.

BIG DADDY
Doesn't want 4 years of being talked to like I am 6 years old either.

KC Jones · 11-30-2000, 11:38 AM

Bob, no probably not, besides, it's the same picture Gore looks at everymorning as he shaves...

BD,

That's why I bought my personal defense weapon (Beretta .40 semi auto pistol) before the election...I wasn't taking any chances...the problem with the duel is that no matter who won, their lawyers would contest it..."no, you did not blow a hole throw his head, it's a dimpled hole, so you can't tell if it's actually a hole."....

ColoradoChief · 11-30-2000, 11:40 AM

nobody at all interested in ending their suffrage?
