> Electors across US break traditional pro forma ritual to use electoral college to protest election
22 December 2004, 20:47
All of you — even the Kerry voters — appear to overlook the larger Florida scandal of the 2000 election: the systematic disenfranchisement of as many as 90,000 probable Gore voters by agents of Jeb Bush through intimidation, rigging of the computerized voter lists, and other such criminal horseplay (that 90,000 votes were illegally lost overwhemlingly to Gore is the estimate appearing in Mark Crispin Miller’s "Cruel AND Unusual: Bush’s New World Order"). Take note, partisans of Bush: This colossal electoral fraud was NEVER JUDGED BY THE SUPREME COURT. The victor of the Florida election , of the popular vote, of the electoral college and of the election as a whole was AL GORE. To those of you (including certain Dems, alas) who will tell me to"get over it", I politely say: Get over my NOT getting over it! "Move on", you say? No, YOU move OFF your denial of the decline of democracy in America! Ask yourselves what so (understandably)depresses or unnerves you about the present situation that in order not to face it, you mock dissidents and fabricate pretexts for opposing recounts. // Sign me — Danny in France
