Diversionary News Tactics, Votergate 2004

::::::::


By Anthony Wade

November 9, 2004

John Ashcroft is leaving. Score another for truth and justice but do not be fooled. The timing of the announcement is designed for one thing only, to distract the media from the groundswell that has become Votergate 2004.

Since the early exit polls were "adjusted " to reflect the stolen election there has been only one story coming from the heart of this country. That story is that it has become plainly obvious that rampant voter fraud has been perpetrated against the will of the people. What has started as a curious examination has ballooned into fact after fact, statistical improbability after statistical improbability that this election was stolen.

In Florida we now know that at least 29 counties essentially flipped their votes when you examine the registrations. In counties where there were 7,000 registered democrats and 2,000 registered republicans we see 7,000 votes for Bush and 2,000 for Kerry. If this was an isolated incident, one may dismiss it, but 29 separate counties show the same anomaly. Further bolstering the proof is that in each of these counties, the exact same method of voting was used.

At stolenelection2004.com, the percentages of change from registrations to actual votes are staggering. In counties that used touch screens we saw reasonable swings such as:

County Republican Democrat

Charlotte 24% 35%
Collier 22% 40%
Hillsborough 51% 11%
Indian River 17% 30%
Lake 27% 14%
Lee 24% 34%
Martin 9% 51%

When we look at the counties which had used Op-Scan Systems the differentials for republicans look like this:

County Republican Democrat

Alachua 259% 15%
Baker 312% 12%
Bay 126% 82%
Bradford 253% 13%
Brevard 123% 58%
Calhoun 741% 23%
Citrus 141% 46%

These are just samples, for the full list of counties, see:

The other smoking gun remains the statistical improbability surrounding the exit polls. In the two states that had paper trails for their machines we saw accurate exit polls with a differential of only 1% between the exit polls and the actual results. But in swing states, targeted early by Bush as crucial for re-election, we see large, anomalous swings, and always in favor of Bush.

Compiled from http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/HL0411/S00072.htm, we see the following extreme swings between exit polling, a historically reliable assessment, and the final tallies:

State Percentage of Differential Favors Probability

Wisconsin 4% Bush 1 in 223 Elections
Ohio 4% Bush 1 in 223 Elections
Florida 7% Bush 1 in 500,000 Elections
Minnesota 7% Bush 1 in 500,000 Elections
N. Hampshire 15% Bush 1 in 10 ^ 22 Elections
N. Carolina 9% Bush 1 in 500,000,000 Elections

Note: Probabilities calculated with SD = 1.53 for 95% - Certainty Level at + or 3%

Note: I found this analysis online, printed it, but then lost the source. Please email me for proper credit.

With each passing day we see more and more proof. More analysis which reveals the statistical impossibility that the election results were real. Notice that the trends always favor Bush? These and many other analyses have revealed the truth the media is still trying to suppress. This election was stolen and the mainstream media has turned a blind eye and deaf ear to the story in the hopes that it just goes away. The efforts made so far though have begun to crack the media silence as Keith Olbermann finally reported on these stories this week. He has since reported that he has received over 6,000 emails thanking him. Take a minute out now and send him an email asking him to continue to take this charge up. His email is KOlbermann@msnbc.com.

Faced with this mounting pressure the Bushies have got to be getting concerned that the truth is coming out. Their strategy seems apparent, diversionary news tactics. Early in the week you saw the reiteration of the gay marriage ban pledge by Bush. A tool he used so masterfully to distract the nation during the run-up to the election fell flat now. Seeking to maintain the headlines we see Bush throw a sacrificial lamb in Ashcroft out today. The hope is that Ashcroft keeps Votergate 2004 off of the mainstream news for a few more days. Then there will be another announcement after the Ashcroft story loses its legs. Delay, delay, delay. Get to the point that the elections are certified. Get to the Inauguration Day. Get to the point that we reach a point of no return.

John Ashcroft resigning is not news. It had been widely known he would be leaving. While this makes most sane people happy, do you really expect a moderate replacement? No, so then what is the difference? None. It would not surprise me to see another horrific Attorney General pick, and soon. Yet another diversionary news story designed to keep Votergate 2004 from the mainstream media.

I have received countless emails about what average people can do about this. Here is my answer. You need to tell your elected officials, congresspersons, and senators to get on board with the John Conyers movement for an investigation. They need to get on board NOW and in PUBLIC or you will remember their stance against democracy when they are up for re-election. This should not matter what party they are from. This is about the essence of democracy where all votes get counted, not fixed.

After that, you need to email or fax all mainstream media with your DEMAND that they start covering Votergate 2004, and not just pay it lip service. There is contact information located on the front page of opednews.com to get you started. If the media fails to start covering this, then the implication from you needs to be that you will not watch their shows anymore, period.

Good riddance John Ashcroft but you are only a diversion. It is your boss we want. He thinks we are going to go away eventually. He is wrong this time.
