Peter B. Collins, Dave Berman to Discuss Unprovable Federal Election Results - 10/23 5pm PT For a long time I have argued federal election results are inherently inconclusive, unknowable and unprovable - based entirely on the conditions under which "elections" are conducted. There is simply no basis for confidence in the reported results, that is, no reason to believe them. This message is about to become significantly amplified.

John Nichols: 2000, 2004 Elections "Inconclusive"; Humboldt Dems to Show "Uncounted" This Sat The Nation's John Nichols' calls the 2000 and 2004 elections "inconclusive," a word I've used for years. Now we must recognize that with election conditions virtually the same, 2008 is guaranteed to be inconclusive and unprovable as well.

Slacker Uprising? Not in the Charlie Brown Nation. Michael Moore released a new film this week called "Slacker Uprising." After watching the free download tonight I realized nobody would have paid to see this had it been released in theaters. In general, I like Moore and his films. But watching "Slacker Uprising" was like seeing the Charlie Brown Nation running up to kick the football that is always pulled away at the last moment. Will Charlie ever learn? Will we?

Unemployment Rises, Media Act Surprised The word "unexpected" should not be used when referring to much anymore, but especially not an increase in unemployment numbers.

Hurricane Gustav, Shock Doctrine and "Election" Events Hurricane Gustav will make landfall Monday, but the storm has already altered the presidential campaign. The militarized response on the Gulf Coast, as well as to protest of the Republican convention in MN, are foreboding signs for the prospects of martial law.

Commentary on NYTimes: Can You Count On These Machines? The New York Times devotes nearly 8,000 words to electronic voting, telling us little we didn't already know while perpetuating false framing about "trust" in election results. But what else should we expect from them, after all? It's just one more component feeding inherent uncertainty.
