For OpEdNews: Rob Kall - Writer We were warned that there could be problems with vote counts, because of e-voting vulnerabilities. The warnings came true. And now, we face a disastrous set of e-vote rigging risks on Super Tuesday.
NH: "First In The Nation" (with Corporate Controlled Secret Vote Counting)
ALL Diebold ALL The Time - It's The New Hampshire Primary
THE CAT THAT CONTROLS NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION PROGRAMMING
Oh, no, the mainstream/corpsestream media didn’t say a word. The Democratic party didn’t mention it. They’re afraid to dampen voter turnout. But we sure covered it. Thers were headlined stories. We expected vote count problems.
And lo and behold, when the word came in that there were huge discrepancies between electronic and paper ballot records, we were not surprised. And the corpsestream media failed to cover the story.
Sure, they asked questions, “Why did the pollsters fail?”
They even convened special discussions, unfortunately, using the regular pundits. And of course, nothing was mentioned of the data that explained WHY THE POLLS FAILED.
It didn’t’ take long for the reports to come in and for our writers to report on them. As soon as the first one came in, I decided to jump on this—that it was a major, important story that I knew the mainstream media would pass on, even though, just this past weekend, the NY Times did a major article on it in its magazine.
I contacted our voting integrity editor, Joan Brunwasser and asked her to put out the word to our team of voting integrity writers and activists.
We put a 12 noon Thursday deadline on the articles. OpEdNews is generally a volunteer site. Writers submit articles they’ve written. They don’t do articles on assignment and they don’t do them with deadlines. So this was something new. We put the deadline on it because the freshness of the New Hampshire story would quickly be lost in the news cycle.
The word went out and the stories started to come in. Here they are:
