Bill Wattenburg is a talk show host on KGO ( a liberal talk show station) in the Bay area. He is a famous scientist who has quite a reputation. When I/5 buckled a few years back he came up with the design for a quick fix. Any ways take a look at the following article to see how there is a lot more than meets the eye regards the election and the ballots in question.

Dimpled Chads Under The Microscope
By Peter K. Sheerin

The photography and commentary below is entirely mine, but I owe many thanks to the friend (who shall remain nameless) in an official government office who was able to provide me with the demonstrator Votomatic ballots, punched on a genuine Votomatic machine. When you finish with this article, please go read Dr. Bill Wattenburg’s article detailing how to do these experiments, as well as how to test a Votomatic machine to see if it can actually be plugged up to the point that it will prevent chads from being detached from the card.

Oh Ignorant One...Voter News Service was created and is owned by major media, i.e. CNN, NBC, CBS, et. al. It was created to save money. They have no fear of making a mistake. Who's going to report on them? Themselves?

Pound sand. Make a dimple.

Are you on drugs, or just delusional by nature?

<<Remember again that this company lives in total fear of making a mistake. Their call was made because voter intent indicated that Gore would win Florida at that point. Even 30,000 votes would not have overcome Gore, based on voter intent>>

For the record I heard the owner of the corporation on TVseveral days after the election. He admitted they made mistakes in Florida and never should have projected when they did.
