Yes, Gore DID win!
[Proof of Coup 2000!] When five voted for millions --by
Robyn E. Blumner
"One of the darkest hours in the history of the U.S.
Supreme Court
was Dec. 12, 2000, at 10 p.m., when the five-member
conservative
majority handed the presidency to George W. Bush over his
rival Al
Gore... Reporter David Margolick headed a writing team that
spoke
with a number of former Supreme Court clerks who were there
when the
Bush case came before the court... Margolick reports that
Justice
Antonin Scalia was so anxious to shut the recount down that
he
pressured his colleagues to do so even before the Gore
legal team had
a chance to respond.
That didn't happen, but consideration of the matter was
moved up to
the next morning. On the 9th, a stay was issued. According
to
Margolick, the court's more conservative members, Chief
Justice
William Rehnquist, Justices Scalia, Clarence Thomas, Sandra
Day
O'Connor and Anthony Kennedy, quickly started 'sending
around memos
to their colleagues, each of them offering a different
rationale for
ruling in Bush's favor.' They were 'auditioning arguments,'
Margolick wrote. During the first go-round, Margolick
reports, an
O'Connor clerk told fellow clerks that 'O'Connor was
determined to
overturn the Florida decision and was merely looking for
grounds.'
This was a court unhinged from the law, operating in a
purely
political guise, bereft of legitimacy."

Election 2000 Vote Fraud --by Alastair Thompson "'Deland,
Fla., Nov. 11 - Something very strange
happened on election night to Deborah Tannenbaum, a
Democratic Party official in Volusia County. At 10 p.m.,
she called the county
elections department and learned that Al Gore was leading
George W.
Bush 83,000 votes to 62,000. But when she checked the
county's Web
site for an update half an hour later, she found a startling
development: Gore's count had dropped by 16,000 votes,
while an
obscure Socialist candidate had picked up 10,000--all
because of a
single precinct with only 600 voters.' -- Washington Post
Sunday ,
November 12, 2000 ; Page A22..." [On page A-22! Only that
the
resident is a complete fraud as proven fifteen other ways,
and it was buried on A-22!!!! This country is a rat-hole.

Miami Herald headline article of April 5, in which the real
recount
total is revealed a day after the misleading headline. (The
real
total had also been buried in the story of the day before).
Here's what Tom Fiedler of the Miami Herald acknowledged
and quoted
as the fundamental fact in the Herald's reporting of the
recount: "[I]f the recount had been started from scratch in
each of Florida's 67 counties, The Herald concluded, 'Gore
would be in the White House today.'" Published in the Miami
Herald, Sunday, April 8, 2001. Click

sacred," by

"Lost" Votes and a Stolen Election, by Paul Lukasiak, with
Maia
Cowan: Elections officials in Republican-controlled
Florida counties omitted potentially thousands of votes
from their certified totals.
The ballot designs in these counties encouraged voters to
both mark a listed candidate and write in the same
candidate's name. Such votes
were rejected as overvotes although they are defined by law
as valid
votes that should be counted. The Florida Secretary of
State failed
in her duties regarding the conduct of elections by
certifying vote
totals that did not include these votes.

Gore would have gained votes in Lake County: GOP illegally
tossed
votes for Gore
Bush picked up 176 votes that lacked postmarks Bowing to
demands
from George W. Bush's campaign that military ballots should
be
counted no matter how they arrived, several Florida county
canvassing boards tallied the overseas ballots regardless
of whether they bore
the requisite postmark. Since Bush carried the overseas
vote by
nearly 2 to 1, the disputed ballots may have added
significantly to
the razor-thin margin of 537 votes by which he carried
Florida and
thus ensured his s-election.
As if we didn't know, The Washington Post reports on the
advanced
release of the Civil Rights Commission Report: "Florida's
conduct of
the 2000 presidential election was marked by 'injustice,
ineptitude
and inefficiency' that unfairly penalized minority voters,
the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights has concluded in a
report that criticizes
top state officials -- particularly Gov. Jeb Bush and
Secretary of
State Katherine Harris -- for allowing disparate treatment
of voters."

"WHOOPS": How The Networks Got It Wrong -- Problem Polling
Policy --
by Michael Hammerschlag
"Meanwhile, hard by the lush Ocala National Forest, 20
miles west of Daytona in Deland, a silver, battery-powered
credit card-sized memory
card in an Election System AccuVote 2000 optical
ballot-scanning
machine had lost its mind, recording negative 16,022 Gore
votes, 2813! extra Bush votes, and 9,880 votes for the
Socialist Workers
candidate in one Volusia Co. precinct (#216) that had only
585
registered voters (the SW, James Harris, got only 11,000
votes
nationwide). Volusia election supervisor Deanie Lowe
recited, "Our
county attorney came to me and said, 'I just saw the
craziest thing:
Gore's total went backward' I said 'You're tired, you're
not seeing
it right, that's impossible'." The Deland machine "didn't
upload [over phone lines], so they brought the whole
machine into the office ... (took) out the card ... and we
directly uploaded into the
computer." At 10:02 p.m., the machine dumped its corrupted
contents: +19,000 net erroneous votes for Bush into the
Volusia computer.
Volusia was instantly posting their numbers on their county
Web site,
which they "shut down around 11-12pm.
We think VNS was picking it up from the Daytona
News/Journal site
that had taken it off of ours," Lowe clarified Dec 22. The
County
stopped updating their web site and we were left with the
incorrect
numbers till the next morning, said the News/Journal s Matt
Grimison,
who was stationed in Deland, the Volusia seat. VNS
apparently entered Volusia's wacky numbers at 2:08 a.m
