Philadelphia was also the only reason Gore won Pennsylvania in the 2000 election. With Pennsylvania in his corner, there would have been no Florida recount, Bush would have won anyway, without Florida.
Philadelphia is were wards were turning out 99.9% of the vote totals for Gore. Many political experts agree that if a candidate gets more than 90% of a vote, there is fraud going on.

Be Seeing You,

Yeah, right. The typical banana-republic dictator lets the token opposition score more votes than that.
"These state voters' lists are terrible", said an RNC spokesman". (TERRIBLE???? Try "illegal", woossy).
"The RNC has not found--or looked for--any partisan pattern". (Why not, you turkeys?).
"We're not engaged in any finger-pointing", said the RNC spokesman. (Why not, are your fingers broken or something?)
No wonder the GOP gets its clock cleaned in precinct after precinct across the fruited plain.

I read both papers assiduously and no further mention was ever made--of names, charges, indictments, arrests, trials, convictions, etc. I wrote several letters to editors asking what was the outcome and none of the letters was ever published--and no response of any sort was ever forthcoming.
Why am I not surprised?

Thanks for the heads up, RaceBannon.
Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent miscellaneous ping list.
Our Democracy is at stake and the A$$hxxx GOP does nothing!
And I vividly recall the time in 2000 that I heard Kousay Mfume say on the radio that they were mounting a get-out-the-vote effort and that they knew the names and addresses of everyone in Philadelphia. Gave me a cold chill.
