Circuit Court Okays Vote Swapping Site

scubacuda writes "C|net reports that the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals court has ruled in favor of Alan Porter's website, Voteexchange2000.com, a site enabling Gore and Nader voters to swap their Gore votes in states where Bush was likely to win anyway for the Green party candidate Nader. In response to the court's decision, Mark Rosenbaum, legal director of the ACLU's Southern California office, said, "We're pleased that the court's ruling permits us to challenge the legality of the secretary of state's partisan attempt to silence political speech on the Internet during the 2000 election."

"What is this, People magazine?"

No it's supposed to be democracy. Bush was selected not elected. There is a big difference. Unfortunately for the people of the states, afghanis, iraquis and the rest of the muslim world bush election means death. The bloodletting will not end as long as bush is in power.

Also...

George Bush and the Bush family have long history of supporing eugenics research. Combine this with the fact that the Bush family fortune comes from Nazis and you'll understand why George Bush built concentration camps in Cuba and Afghanistan.
