who is down 36 points below the democrat in the polls still wins, will people do anything or just roll over and give up democracy?

It will be a nightmare if he wins when the other guy is ahead 36 points according to our republican paper a day ago--such a lead is almost unheard of..but I have this feeling he'll still get in--payback you know? Will he win? Will anyone rebell if he does? What could we do?

I am referring to elections in Ohio (the governor's race. Blackwell was the seretary of State (chief elction official) and co char of the re-elect Bush campaign. He did several things like throw away new registrations that were on the wrong weight of paper, try to force provosional ballot changes, give a no bid contract to Diebold voting machine companies and was sued by ES & S voting company who had bid on it, broke several election laws of Ohio during the recount. He also sugbtracting one voting machiones from almost every democratic precinct (which created lines of 2-13 hours (never before over 15 minutes in my 35 years of voting), gave broken machines to minority areas (one had NO working voting machines) while at the same time putting more machines in wealthy suburbs, suburdan churches and rural districts where people testified under oath the waits were zero to 30 minutes due to extra machines. This led tens of thousand of people in democratic areas (poor, minority, and

The exact number of machines subtracted from each precinct (as shown by official logs in the movie just out (forget name--I'll try to find it) were found in a warehouse (reported by the Columbus Dispatch (rep paper). Blackwell was just sued in court this past week for throwing out up to 10% of registrations and absentees ballots for a minotr technicality (almost a million voters--he lost in court). He is trailing 36 points behind his opponent Strickland the democrat according to the Dispatch poll yesterday. He ran a campaign of dirty ads against Strickland accusing him of bring gay (strickland is a former minister married about 30 some years to the same woman.

there is plenty of evidence that reps rigged it and the recount..you are just uninformed..I attended multiple hearings and the rep attorneys, one of whom would not recuse himself and ruled on his own case of using vote fraud, all refused to hear the evidence and tried to sanction attorneys ignoring multiple pleas from members of congress. So don't tell me there is no fraud. I am a magna cu m laud grad studying the issue four years..

Get your facts straight, I don't live in Ohio, but Blackwell did not "rig" any elections! He was accused of it by partisan losers, and they could not come up with ONE instance to support their claim. The only people ever caught "rigging" have been Democrats, NEVER a Republican. Remember, Republicans are FOR voter ID, Democrats are against it because it would keep them from rigging elections.
