Tracking voting problems:
Election-day voter reports
A group of non-partisan organizations and academic institutions have set
up a Voter Alert Line (1-866-MYVOTE1) at the National Constitution Center
on Election Day from 6 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. NBC News will be reporting on the
problems called in on air and on this Web page
And lastly complaints from the far right about voter fraud (I especially like his association of liberals with cappucinos--see the Hillary picture on the left)
Voter fraud stories
Bill Hobbs, a former Nashville journalist who's now in PR, is tracking voter fraud
stories on his weblog (see Harry's response to this posting for more background).

Ah yes, that's what I get for putting these up at 3 in the morning! I'll put a warning in...
Thanks for the link. I've linked to you on Swerve Left as well. BTW, I'm also a writing teacher who has studied philosophy (mostly Eastern philosophy in my case.)
Thanks for this, Thivai. I'll link to it from Spontaneous Arising.
Say hey to all the "tired progressives" when you hang out with them tonight...:)
Thanks for these. I finally have the laptop to play with now that PC-hogging human is away at the polls, I can get the real story . . .
Awesome and witty blog by the way, I'll show it to all my friends in low places and to some other people who need to see it too. Over and out, Cal
Karlo, Michael and Cal,
Thanks... it doesn't seem that we will have an answer tonight?
Karlo... thanks for a great site!
Michael... where can we grab the spiritual in this case? I'm so tired of monological politics trying to shout the "other" down... how can we learn to listen to the "other" and will it help anyone but "us" (and is that enough?)
Cal... peace, Yoshi gives her regards!
