Valgsvindel i USA
Vandrehistorier om republikansk valgsvindel (især under præsidentvalget i 2000) har en fast plads i den radikale venstrefløjs myte-verden. I dag faldt jeg over denne historie:
Currie has been accused of irregular election practices in several lawsuits, and a review of election results, property records and databases of registered voters uncovered procedures that experts and other election officials described as questionable.
Among findings by News reporters were ballots cast by people registered to vote at abandoned and long-demolished buildings; a master voter list with 380,000 incorrect names and addresses -- including people who have died or moved out of the city; and a practice of hand-delivering ballots from senior citizens and disabled voters that were filled out in private meetings with Currie's paid election workers.
Republikanere, der fusker med valget i Florida i 2000?
Nej da: Detroit i 2005, en højborg for det Demokratiske parti. Der er meget mere i artiklen, blandt andet denne passus:
State law requires cities and townships to turn in election results to the county by 11 a.m. the morning after the election, and 42 of Wayne County's 43 municipalities complied. But Detroit's results were not turned in until nine days after the election, Jenkins said.
When the results arrived, eight of 24 poll districts and 52 of 100 absentee ballot districts had irregularities; mainly, they recorded more or fewer votes than names taken down on election night. When two separate recounts were requested by losing City Council candidates, county canvassers deemed 40 of 107 precincts selected for recount couldn't be recounted due to irregularities such as broken ballot box seals and numbers of ballots not matching the number of votes recorded on election night. That meant candidates had no way of determining the legitimacy of the vote in nearly 40 percent of Detroit's precincts selected for recount.
Føj dertil, at problemerne under præsidentvalget i 2000 fandt sted i amter med demokratiske valg-ansvarlige, samt massiv demokratisk valgsvindel under 2004-valget i Washington (staten, ikke byen - eksempler her og her) og Wisconsin, og et billede begynder at tegne sig.
Den historie får vi bare ikke - det er jo ikke onde republikanere, der står bag.
UPDATE:
Nå ja, mens jeg er i gang med det: Der er også gode indikationer på, at Kennedy blev præsident i 1960 på baggrund af massiv valgsvindel i Texas og Illinios. I forvejen fik han færre stemmer end Nixon gjorde - ikke ulig Bush´s situation vis-a-vis Gore i 2000-valget.
