election 2008. election fraud

There is more at stake this year than just the White House. The Republicans have mismanaged just about every state they have been running...and have turned American democracy into an embarassment with fraud, intimidation and, quite probably, outright stealing of elections.

Given the probably stolen elections in FL in 2000, GA Senate in 2002, Ohio in 2004, and Florida and North Carolina in 2006 (Congressional races), it seems our election system has some pretty serious problems and/or corruption in it. Even a Republican cybersecurity expert has said that it is probable that some of these elections were fraudulent. Florida's elections are so inadequate that the Carter Center, which monitors elections worldwide, refused to monitor Florida in 2004 because it didn't meet the minimum standards for democratic elections.
