I’m too weary of the recount nightmare of 2000 to really want to relive it. On the other hand, I’m glad that somebody is paying attention to some odd numbers coming out of Ohio and Florida. I wouldn’t have pegged Keith Olbermann as the guy to do it, but good for him.
This is probably going to be nothing more than a historical curio like Cook County in 1960, but I want people to keep on reviewing the record. History should know the weakness of Bush’s mandate when it looks back on how he fucked our country.
Some very good voting-machine analysis was done by this guy. It also will probably, sadly, amount to nothing more than the sort of thing liberals rant about when they get a little drunk, but the work should be done even if nobody hears the screams from the ivory tower.
Hat tip to Iocaste.
NOTE: James pointed out to me that Cuyahoga County, home of far more votes than voters according to Olbermann, went 2-1 for Kerry. This obviously makes it less likely that Kerry actually “won” Ohio, but doesn’t change at all the logic for reviewing all the records and counting every vote.
