You're flattering yourself if you think our entire lives revolve around 'trying to get a rise out of Republicans'.

It's only his foreign policy which matters to us, he can screw up your country as much as he wants for all we care. It's just the fact that you've just voted for another war that bothers us.

Either way, Kerry and Bush will have both screwed over some more stuff in the world. It isn't like Kerry is a saint just because he isn't Bush.

In EVERY STATE that has paper audit trails on their EVoting, the exit poll results match the actual results reported within the margin of error.

So we have MATCHING RESULTS for exit polls vs. voting with audits

vs.

A 5% unexplained advantage for Bush without audits.

....and the head of Diabold (who make these machines) was in the news in August 2003,

Quote:
The head of a company vying to sell voting machines in Ohio told Republicans in a recent fund-raising letter that he is "committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year."

Also, some of the exit polls that the "calling" of states is based upon also seemed to suffer some Orwellian fate.

So, there we go. Something for all of the anti-bush theorists to have a chew upon.
