New Hampshire to make recounts more difficult New Hampshire is about to make recounts more difficult. That does not serve the voters well, regardless of how it is 'spun'. Read the article, Bev Harris's rebuttal and go online to comment. Can't hurt; we need to show the media that we know what's going on and they can't make a sow's ear into a silk purse and think we won't notice!

BlackBoxVoting EXCLUSIVE - Massive ballot-rigging technique?

CO: Shaken caucus official reports ballot stuffing I just interviewed a gentleman in Boulder,CO who provided a detailed report.He was a caucus official(chairman? captain?not sure of the lingo).They hand counted the ballots and the two elderly ladies counted them wrong. He corrected them. He carefully wrote down the correct information. While he was doing this,one of the elderly ladies was grabbing at the envelope;she ultimately did take the envelope and hurry away

New video - unspinnable details: Breach of NH chain of custody BALLOTS WERE NOT SECURED FOR THE NEW HAMPSHIRE RECOUNT. Both candidates' money should be returned because the state of New Hampshire failed to secure the recount ballots. The above video shows state officials' responses when asked who is responsible for the chain of custody breakdown, and shows specific wards and towns with ballot box chain of custody breaches.

The New Hampshire "Shame of Custody" Decide for yourself what to make of this video of New Hampshire officials refusing to secure ballots in the ballot vault -- a deviation from their normal procedure. This video reveals the fraudulent "seals" that peel off and reaffix like high-priced Post-It notes.

At the NH Recount: Holes Hidden In Plain Sight The "seals" are not seals. The "chain of custody" is not a chain of custody. Ballots being transported by the "state police" are actually transported by Butch and Hoppy, who are not employed by the state police. Butch and Hoppy's real names are not really Butch and Hoppy. In New Hampshire, it's all hidden in plain sight.

NH Recount Update: Ballot boxes found slit; NH stops putting ballots in vault BBV has been doing a chain of custody exam for the NH Primary's recount.On Wednesday night,EDA's Sally Castleman mentioned a troubling observation:After following the ballots back to the ballot vault following Wednesday's recount,she had the opportunity to enter the ballot vault,& noticed what looked like cuts,or slits,in the side of many ballot boxes.A significant departure from the normal chain of custody path occurred...

On the ground in NH: Recount Update The upshot: The ballots we had videotaped in the van being transported, which arrived intact without slits, were not taken to the vault and were not kept in a location requiring keycard access last night (except that entering the building itself requires a keycard)

Can NH recount chain of custody be rescued? VERDICT: New Hampshire is unable to document its chain of custody properly, lacks written procedures, its secretary of state has said he doesn't know where its memory cards are, and LHS has been encroaching on state elections with near-total control. I'll be preparing a Special Report when I return from New Hampshire with documents and video to support this assessment.

Update from the trenches: Can NH recount chain of custody be rescued? We are finding in New Hampshire:the best of the best in MOST situations,but considerable naivete & in some areas,an alarming and willfull negligence.The upshot will be that New Hampshire could be the role model for the nation,but not until they purge themselves of a limited number of very significant problems.The problem with chain of custody:You can have a strong,beautiful,stainless steel chain but if one link is broken...

New problems identified with Iowa caucuses If you live in any one of the 50 states, this affects you. Iowa caucuses directly affect which presidential candidates you will be able to vote for -- and as you'll see, the Iowa caucuses are a mighty leaky vessel to hold such weight.

Unauthorized vote alterations on Texas iVotronic voting machine This is a machine that would not have passed certification tests had it performed this way for the test labs. This is a machine that has no business counting votes at all.And because the iVotronic voting systems are centrally programmed, and the programming defines how the machine counts its votes, this is a machine that has single-handedly cast doubt on every other iVotronic voting machine in Wharton County.

A funeral for a presidential election What is going on in OH is absolutely amazing, inspiring & in fact the hard core research done by Phillips and Shaffer humbles me.Phillips wrote a book appropriately titled "Witness to a Crime,"in which he details and provides photocopies of evidence of the vote fraud in OH,for the most part,perpetrated by insiders.Most of these insiders still hold office.There is no will among those who hold power to hold them accountable.

Pork Spending of Help America Vote Act Funds The Help America Vote Act (HAVA) doled out billions in funds to buy voting machines that we never asked for and are now trying to get rid of, but the wasteful spending didn't stop there. The "education" funding is oinking loudly as well. Alabama's HAVA financial reports, for example, show hundreds of thousands in disbursements to people listed by first name only, or first name and initial, like "Brenda K"...
