Ballot-box stuffing goes high-tech.

Favorite quote: " "From what we have seen so far, we do not believe any of these instances where people voted in precincts they shouldn't have voted in would have affected any of the races," said Steve Rodermund, Orange County's registrar of voters."

Ah, I feel so comforted now. Headline from this coming November: "Record Voter Turnout! 110% of all registered voters turned out for the Presidential Election! Bush Reelected!"

This combined with the infamous quote from Diebold's CEO does not make me trust the reliability of our election results.

Anou... before you suggest that Bush would try to steal the election, you should take a look at which side had evidence of >100% turnout, students voting twice, convicted felon voting, illegal alien voting, and attempts to deny military votes. For the record, it wasn't the red states.

Nonononono - that was a reference to the Diebold CEO's quote about how he was commited to delivering our electoral votes to Bush in 2004 - not a reference to Bush himself doing anything.

And the >100% turnout didn't have anything to do with students and illegals voting multiple times, if you read the article I linked to. It's purely a problem with the voting machines themselves, and the people who are running them.
