    Actually this is an age old Democrat trick. Just look at the recent governor race in Washington State where after 2 recounts, enough votes were "found" so the Democrate would win. Oddly enough 50 of those votes turned out to be dead people.

    50 votes for Kerry if history is any indicator.

    That's right. The Democrats try to add fraudulent voters to the roles. The Republicans, on the other hand, are busy trying to keep fraudulent voters off the roles.

    I'm sure it's pretty obvious who they voted for. It goes to show how desperate the Kerry voters were. Not only that they cheated and they lost!
