Shouldn't that be: 2008: Another year of hack the vote yet again? ......^^^^^^^.......................^^^^^^^^^ There is every reason to believe that the 2000 presidential election was stolen. A fair/honest/lawful election would have made Al Gore the 43rd president. There is every reason to believe the situation was even worse in 2004. If the election had been fair/honest/lawful Kerry would have won be a wide margin. Flipping Ohio's 20 electoral votes would have been sufficient all by itself to flip the election from Kerry to Bush ... and there is plenty of evidence of widespread fraud in Ohio. See e.g. the Conyers report, http://www.nvri.org/about/ohio_conyers_report_010505.pdf And Ohio was only the tip of the iceberg; there was large- scale hanky-panky in Florida and many other states. I like the book by Prof. Steven F. Freeman & Joel Bleifuss, _Was the 2004 Presidential Election Stolen_? Most of the crucial information can also be found on Freeman's web site http://www.appliedresearch.us/sf/epdiscrep.htm but the book is much better organized and easier to read. The book is dispassionate, scrupulous, and scientific ... which is something you don't often see, especially in the political sphere. Another book is by Mark Crispin Miller, _Fooled Again_ which is more passionate and less technical. It takes a broader view of the subject, and is far easier to read, especially for readers who are not well-versed in statistics. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
