Hey! "What if" scenarios are totally valid for threads. Bush is in politics and this forum is Politics and News

What if Florida lied and Bush actually lost that state?
What if California was really worth 85 electoral votes?
What if Bush controlled every level of the mainstream media and he actually lost among the ballots but made his journalistic minions tell everyone he won?
etc.

I could make threads for days :)

[Edit] I mean, it's at least as valid as this thread


What if Cali lied and it went to Bush?
What if Bush was a baby and contested PA similar to OHIO, what about Oregon?

Lets talk about a BIGGER landslide

It's over.

So you endorse a full audit of the votes? Great, I'll jot your name down.

But, but, all these liberals say repeatedly that no one from the red zone would have the intellect to do anything that smart. I guess somebody from the blue zone must have helped them, huh? Go find that traitor and take his computer!!

i seem to remember reading a story this friday about a county that gave 4000+ votes to bush where there are only 600 some votes to be had.
so...i guess its a valid question. but everyone here is just insulting each other rather then attempting to see what would happen if, days or months after an election, we find out something went "wrong" (not necessarily someone was cheating) and the computer-run counts were off. by quite a bit.

You are correct.. I probably should have presented the question more from that perspective instead of adding my personal feelings on it.

that sure was an odd error wasn't it? In Ohio no less....

What if Republicans found out that DIEBOLD and Bush stole the election

1. If anyone was involved in fraud during the election then I would say that the areas effected by the fraud revote.

2. There are very specific laws in regards to fixing elections and I would hold ANYONE (Bush included) to those laws.

Seriously... would you concede and give it back because it would be illegal otherwise -

I would not concede and "give it back" (what an assumption that it would still turn out for Kerry). I would allow the revotes in the effected areas to stand and support whoever was legally elected. You act as though Kerry had it in the bag and the conservatives took it out.... If there was fraud, no one had it in the bag because no one knows the true votes (except for the possible fraud perps...).

Of course, count them all. Count every single last one. Absentee, provisional, etc, etc.

Given the number of e-voting problems discovered without an audit so far, we definitely need an audit to see how deep the problems go:

* Columbus, OH - An error with an electronic voting system gave President Bush 3,893 extra votes in suburban Columbus, elections officials said. Franklin County?s unofficial results had Bush receiving 4,258 votes to Democrat John Kerry?s 260 votes in a precinct in Gahanna. Records show only 638 voters cast ballots in that precinct.

* Broward Co., FL ? ES&S software on their machines only reads 32,000 votes at a precinct then it starts counting backwards: http://www.news4jax.com/politics/3890292/detail.html

* Wichita Co., TX ? Nearly 6,900 of 26,000 total early votes had ?undervote? for President. Human error to blame. County has software problems that need ES&S to fix before they can run ballots: http://www.timesrecordnews.com...N_5784_3303816,00.html

* Lancaster Co., SC ? Unilect Patriot voting machines were used and failed. Printouts of votes had to be taken from the machines memories and hand-counted: http://www.charlotte.com/mld/o...ews/local/10094349.htm

* Mecklenburg Co., NC ? More votes registered than voters: http://www.charlotte.com/mld/c.../politics/10094165.htm

* Volusia Co., FL ? Diebold optical-scan machines had another failure with 6 machines having memory card failures. ?Ion Sancho, the elections supervisor in Leon County, said officials with Diebold told him that the new, higher-capacity memory cards tend to have more glitches than older cards.?: http://www.orlandosentinel.com...oll=orl-news-headlines

* Craven Co., NC - Software glitch forces a recount which changes the outcome in one race.: http://www.newbernsj.com/SiteP...8297&Section=Local

* San Francisco, CA - A glitch in the new tabulation software made by ES&S to handle IRV/RCV voting (more here) stoped the counting and forced a recount of 81,000 ballots.: http://www.internetweek.com/al...tml?articleID=52200321

* Sarpy County, NE - 3000 ?phantom votes? show up after an audit reveals that some tabulation equipment counted votes twice. (I?m not sure if this is optical scan or some other system? they used optical scan in 2002): http://www.wowt.com/news/headlines/1161971.html
