> Election Unresolved As Ohio Residents Fight Disenfranchisement
6 November 2004, 07:09
"Disenfranchisement" is another way of claiming "racism." I’m tired of hearing that battle cry. It gets old real fast. When Clinton won, the conservatives didn’t claim fraud; they just accepted it as the outcome of the voting process. What about the military vote for Ohio, I don’t hear any Kerry fans concerned about their votes. The liberals are concerned about every vote counting, only they think it is one of their own. I think the military’s vote should be counted and announced before anybody’s.
Anyone can show up to vote and get a provisional ballot. Statistically, the provisional ballots are not enough to help Kerry. That’s why he figured he could not win and conceded—I’ll give’em credit here. Kerry and Edwards are lawyers; if they didn’t see a way to win via loophole; I don’t think there is one.
The election is official after the electors’ votes are counted. So, a concession is not final; just like a horse race is not official until the judge calls it—no matter who you saw cross the finish line first or who you saw on the photo-finish.
George W. will go down as one of the best Presidents in history. Those on the left will have to humble themselves in order to realize this. Perhaps, some will never realize this.
