Blackboxvoting.org Raises Vote-Audit FOIA Request

aacool writes "Blackboxvoting.org has raised the largest Freedom of Information request in history. At 8:30 p.m. Election Night, Black Box Voting blanketed the U.S. with the first in a series of public records requests, to obtain internal computer logs and other documents from 3,000 individual counties and townships. Networks called the election before anyone bothered to perform even the most rudimentary audit. Among the first requests sent to counties (with all kinds of voting systems -- optical scan, touch-screen, and punch card) is a formal records request for internal audit logs, polling place results slips, modem transmission logs, and computer trouble slips."

Show me Kerry's lead in Florida's and Ohio's exit polls.

Just because your news organization showed a Kerry lead in the polls when you were watching doesn't mean it's the final tally.

Please stop spreading FUD

Now, suddenly, only two states have a vote count which is wildly divergent from the exit polling. Those states are Ohio and Florida.

Actually, the results were quite in line with the exit polls. (Florida, Ohio)
