FMNN has carried several articles on the use of Diebold vote
machines
for the Iowa Straw Poll. Details are not available as of this
report,
but apparently one of the controversial machines malfunctioned,
causing
a hand recount of some 1,500 votes.
There have been suspicions in the past over the Iowa Straw Poll.
An FMNN
feedbacker writes:
“I was there (at a previous Iowa Straw Poll) supporting Pat
Buchanan.
Let me tell you something, we had the Teamsters bus in support
for the
campaign. I worked in the food tent, and the line literally
never
receded for the Buchanan camp. However, Elizabeth Dole had
virtually no
supporters whatsoever. Magically, she came in like second or
third. I
remember thinking to myself back then that it was like we were
competing
against ghosts.

Supporters of Ron Paul issued the following letter before the
Straw
Poll, August 11.
Everything we are all doing is going to be brought to NAUGHT if
the
Diebold computers - being used to 'count' the votes at the Iowa
Straw
Poll - are used to STEAL the Straw Poll Election … Diebold
computers
[are] easily hacked, easily rigged, -- and totally unreliable
for
conducting elections. And this is old news, several
authoritative
studies have already shown this from MIT, Cal Tech, Princeton
University, and numerous other sources. Search "Diebold
Princeton
University" on YOUTUBE - and you can see a 9 minute
demonstration. Add
"FOX News" to the search - and there is another 3 minute
demonstration
by these scientists on FOX News. Citizens for a Fair Vote Count
and
allies are conducting a verification EXIT POLL at the Ames Straw
Poll.
We're asking all Ron Paul people who vote in the Ames Straw Poll
in the
official election on the easily rigged Diebold Machines - to
cast a
second "ballot" in our exit poll. IF WE COME UP with 5000 Ron
Paul exit
poll ballots - the Iowa GOP better not say he only got 2000
votes! Get
the point?

ON HBO TONIGHT: "THE MAN OF THE YEAR"
RE: FIXING THE VOTE
A political satire of a comedian (Williams) who after dissing
the political campaigns and presidents is forced into the
running. But shockingly we wins and makes a mockery of the
office. "Man of the Year" is not the funniest movie nor the best
but in small doses it does work. Williams again teaming with
Levinson after a hit with "Good Morning, Vietnam". The two seem
to have a great chemistry and work off each other. I am not
comparing them to Scorsese and DeNiro but you can get the
picture. Although I wouldn't quite say to rush out there and see
the movie in theaters I would recommend renting it. This movie
is a comedy but also has a great satire, please if you like
movies like "Scary Movie 4" this is not for you, take your brain
with you to see it. - ***
