Friday, December 16, 2005 FL:Election Supervisor Thinks 2000 Election was Hacked Into on Diebold Machines NBC Channel 2 WESH: When Ion Sancho, FL's Leon County Supervisor of Elections, tested the Diebold system and allowed experts to manipulate the card electronically, he shockingly discovered before his very own eyes that someone could change the outcome of a mock election w/o leaving any kind of trail. In other words, someone could fix an election and no one would know: "The expert that we used simply programmed it on his laptop in his hotel room." Sancho began investigating the problem after watching the votes come in during the infamous 2000 election. In Volusia Cnty a memory card added more than 200 votes to Bush's total and subtracted 16,000 votes from Al Gore. The mistake was later corrected during a hand count. After watching his computer expert change vote totals this wk, Sancho said that he now believes someone on the inside did the same thing in 2000: "Someone w/ access to the vote center in Volusia County put it on a memory card and uploaded it into the main system." NO SHIT SHERLOCK. Ya didn't have to wear a tin foil hat to see that our elections have been sabotaged from the will of the American voters... but at least someone in the position to draw attention to it has finally realized what kind of crimes have taken place (plus the Miami Herald is reporting on the vote hacking, too). But I'd be very careful if I were this guy. It's about time for the Bush Famiglia to "unexpectedly" discover Sancho in a dirty motel rm, sitting in a bubblebath w/his wrists slit, while in full rigor mortis. |
