I've watched Scott build his case with a lot of scepticism. Most of what he's posted seems over the top to me. But in between I have seen enough solid evidence to conclude the elections were solidly rigged. The amount of discrepancy between exit polls and actual polls is just to great. And there is enough anecdotal evidence to convince me that a very clever and concerted fraud effort was in effect in areas that could go either way.

With electronic voting machines that CAN'T be audited, how can we know if an election is rigged or not? I don't have an opinion on whether the election was rigged, but I'm extremely distrubed by these machines, which should be illegal. All Americans should oppose them, for obvious reasons. Weren't we supposed to get all this straightened out after the 2000 election dumb show? What didn't go right?

"things are that rigged" There are some really good documents from the 60-70s. Me especially like the one about the traditional mechanical voting machine with the back cover unlocked, and all the counting wheels exposed to freely swing and adjust. However, this is just one of all the best of the best documented stories. (I used the same on one local flipper-machine for almost three months, just by slightly bending the back cover, but then they re-inforced it, but I never managed to copy that key and they always locked it) I believe the US congress still have all the technical, mechanical drawings from the hearings of the Voting Act of 1971 (1972?? 1970??)
