The election is our nation's most sacred element. If it turns out that the party in power manipulated the results at all then, yes, there will be pitchforks.

  • Yes but: Gore v Bush

    Aside: As you likely already know, Voter Action proved in court that Kerry won New Mexico. As in "got more votes" than Bush.

    They chose NM, to make their point about electronic voting, because NM's electoral votes (alone) wouldn't change the outcome.

    The chicanery in other states was much more blatant. eg Ohio. Alas, that lawsuit was abruptly ended when all the evidence was destroyed, despite the court ordered retention. (IIRC, that plantiff was Green Party candidate Codd.)

    So it goes.

    • Somehow people are 100% ok with the right-wing ratfucking which has become typical.

      But the current accusations are a completely different level.
