The signifigance is that a partisan majority will be forced to display their
indifference to fair and honest elections when they vote to stop the
debate that will now be required today in both houses of congress. If crimes
were committed to illegitimately manipulate the vote in Ohio to obtain a
Bush majority, everyone who votes to stop an investigation will join those
involved in disenfranchising the American people from voting via methods
where ballots can be physically examined and accounted for. The Ohio and
Florida votes are tainted with a stench similiar to the first Ukraine vote.
Perhaps because the voting is a much newer right now enjoyed in the Ukraine, they refused to put up with exit poll inconsistancy, while the majority
of American sheeple react to similar circumstances by barely raising an
eyebrow.

Ohio's Election Day Vote To Be Challeged
POSTED: 10:54 am EST January 6, 2005
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- A group of Democrats will force the House and Senate to debate Election Day problems at Ohio polls before certifying President George W. Bush's win on Nov. 2.
Each state has held its Electoral College vote and Thursday is the day Congress is supposed to certify the results.
But, U.S. Dem. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D – Calif., has signed a challenge led by House Democrats to Ohio's 20 electoral votes. In a letter, she said the debate is the only way to "let the American people know the facts" about Ohio's vote.
By law, any such challenge that's signed by members of both houses compels each chamber to meet for up to two hours to consider the complaint.
The move is unlikely to alter the outcome as Republicans outnumber Democrats in both the House and the Senate. Both houses would have to uphold the challenge for Ohio's votes to be invalidated.
This is the second time such a complaint will have to be considered since 1877. <a href="http://www.whiotv.com/politics/4054615/detail.html">http://www.whiotv.com/politics/4054615/detail.html
