Trail of Treachery
 
 

My Trail of Treachery was compiled during the Presidential Election goings-on in Year 2000.  More information has been added periodically in the form of links.  This site is a continuation of the battle to demand our elected officials implement a system of voting which is tamper and fraud proof.
 
I find it extremely interesting that many continue to believe the idea that the problems in Florida with the punch-card machines were in districts with "older machines." 
 
A study by the Palm Beach Post showed it was the newer machines, however, it is still unclear all these years later whether those machines had the pre-scored or not pre-scored versions of punch card.
 
And as I state in Trail of Treachery, REMEMBER, Palm Beach County officials knew of these tendencies for hanging chads in the "newer" DATAPUNCH machines in 1996.
 
That's right, not only did those officials know of "error" tendencies, Dianne Feinstein, a United States Congresswoman admitted she knew of "errors", undervotes, in her district, for many years!
 
Voting-machine errors discovered 4 years ago

By George Bennett and Marc Caputo, Palm Beach Post Staff Writers
Friday, December 8, 2000

Elections officials were alarmed by an "unusually high" number of voters who had trouble punching their ballots for president on Palm Beach County's newest type of voting machine.

Another chapter in the dimpled chad drama surrounding this year's contested presidential election?

Actually, it happened four years ago.

Former Elections Supervisor Jackie Winchester said in a memo to state elections officials after the 1996 presidential election that the county had registered an unusual number of under-votes in 10 precincts that used new Data Punch machines.

A Palm Beach Post analysis last month found that precincts using Data Punch machines in this election had a 4.4 percent under-vote rate, compared with a 1.5 percent rate on older, more expensive Votomatic machines used elsewhere in the county. The Data Punch machines accounted for nearly half of all 10,311 under-votes in this year's election.

An under-vote is recorded when a voter skips a race or when the perforated "chad" next to a candidate's name isn't detached thoroughly enough to be read by a tabulating machine. Under-votes and attempts to count them have become key issues in Florida's close presidential race.

Winchester's memo doesn't name the 10 precincts, but she said Thursday she believed they were the precincts with the highest number of under-votes that year. Those precincts had a 16 percent under-vote rate in 1996.

The under-vote rate was 2.3 percent for the rest of the county in that year's presidential race between President Clinton and Bob Dole.

The 10 problem precincts used new Data Punch machines, Winchester's memo said.

TRAITORS TO THE CONSTITUTION

www.worldnetdaily.com
According to sources we spoke with, several elections -- perhaps as many as seven or more -- have been "taken" from victorious GOP candidates over a span of two decades. Worse, the very tactics used to steal those races are now being employed in an attempt to snatch victory away from Gov. George W. Bush in the state of Florida.

'Clinton card' investigation begins
California's secretary of state takes closer look at Democrat mailer
THURSDAY NOVEMBER 16, 2000
By Julie Foster
© 2000 WorldNetDaily.com
California Secretary of State Bill Jones is investigating an election-weekend mailer that included an unofficial "voter registration card" targeted at newly registered Latinos, signed by President Bill Clinton and mysteriously sent to at least one unregistered non-citizen. The existence of the mass mailing was first brought to light by WorldNetDaily on Nov. 7.

'Clinton card' investigation begins

YET, PRESIDENT DEBORAH PHILLIPS OF WATCHDOG GROUP - VOTING INTEGRITY PROJECT - VIP WHICH TRACKS ELECTION FRAUD
MAKES A REALLY WEIRD STATEMENT:

There's nothing illegal about it.
Phillips, commenting on the 'Clinton card'

UNBELIEVABLE, DEBORAH PHILLIPS, JUST INCREDIBLE!

Is the intent to defraud, there? No doubt, since election registrations are NOT A FEDERAL OR POLITICAL PARTY FUNCTION. The duty to provide legal registration cards are a state matter and all VOTER REGISTRATION CARDS ARE TO BE OFFICIALLY ISSUED BY THE STATE OF RESIDENCY BASED ON VERIFICATION OF CITIZENSHIP.

According to the the inquisitive Jim Condit Jr. Director, Citizens for a Fair Vote Count

November 13, 2000 Smoking guns! And -- The “Ransom” Scenario
"Incidentally, words like “chad” have been known to votefraud investigators for 20 years. Yet CNN announced at 6:42 PM on Nov. 11 that a new political term “CHAD” had entered the national vocabulary. Yes, it’s only entering the NATIONAL vocabulary now because the Big Media has been covering up the truth about punch card computerized systems.

The Big Media and Big Politicians of both major parties have acted UNTIL NOW as if anyone who brought up the problems with the punch card system was touched in the heard, crazy, paranoid, conspiracy minded, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc."

Nov 13, 2000 Broward County update:

One Republican commissioner and one Democrat commissioner voted not to continue with a county-wide hand count given this:

Errors are supposed to be so dramatic in the sample handcount as to show massive TABULATING MACHINE COUNT ERROR.

WHY DON'T OFFICIALS HAVE ACCURATE COUNT OF HOW MANY ABSENTEE BALLOTS WERE SENT OVERSEAS AND HAVE BEEN RETURNED?



Deadline Looms As Recount Continues
Monday, Nov. 13, 2000
washingtonpost.com

An informal survey of 61 of Florida's 67 election supervisors found that they had mailed out more than 18,500 overseas ballots. Of those, about half had been returned and the majority of them counted. It was not immediately known how many ballots were outstanding. Election supervisors plan to count the remaining ballots on Friday and send the results to the Harris's office.

CNN HOWEVER, November 15, 2000 all day long has been relaying to us that nobody knows for sure how many absentee ballots have been sent overseas. That number keeps changing, too. Anybody surprised.

BUT WAIT WE HAVE MORE NUMBERS NOVEMBER 16, 2000 FROM WHOM? NOW DON'T READ THAT 162,OOO!



Florida sent out

more than



19,300 ballots to people living abroad, according to an Associated Press survey of 64 of the 67 counties.
About 10,000 of those were returned before Election Day and were included in the counting on Nov. 7.

USA Today said its Florida survey found that the largest number of still-uncounted overseas ballots — 1,174 — were from the county that is home to the Pensacola Naval Air Station. Palm Beach County, which is heavily Democratic, had the second most, 515.

Anybody who can read this surprised?


WHY DIDN'T OFFICIALS IN DELAND COUNTY APPRISE THE PUBLIC OF A MALFUNCTIONING COMPUTER POWER OUTAGE ON ELECTION EVE NOVEMBER 7, 2000? WHY ARE WE JUST LEARNING OF AN ADDITIONAL 320 VOTES DUE TO A POWER OUTAGE, NOW ON NOV. 14, 2000?



WHOA, WAIT. MORE VOTES FOUND FOR GUESS WHO? GORE! BECAUSE OF A POWER OUTAGE THAT DOWNED SOME COMPUTERS?

Yes, people, we are just hearing of this a week later than the Nov. 7, 2000 Election Day. Why didn't we learn of this that evening on AP news? Why didn't we learn of any power outage the next day?

Any idea how many votes? Report: 320

Poll:



Do you think the amount of power outage votes will add 1000 PLUS GORE IN CHEAT OR 320 MINUS BUSH AND SPOTTY votes once overseas absentee ballots roll in and are known?

PUNCH HOLE HERE IN PRINTOUT

1000 PLUS GORE IN CHEAT

KEEP ON! THINK ABOUT IT!



AND... Guess what Volusia County spokesperson, public relations guy said we're just now counting the "red sleeve ballots!" That's right, you heard it here first. Red sleeve ballots are ones that went uncounted and unreported and were spirited away and placed where? Why don't you know? In a red sleeve envelope!!! Somewhere in the county. You must read Jim Condit and VOTESCAM by the Collier Brothers.

PAY ATTENTION PLEASE!



Wow, that is the very first report that shows the discrepancy between what Florida officials have been reporting since the automatic recount and what VNS has been reporting to all of our news agencies!

Countywide Manual Recount in Palm Beach
NewsMax.com Wires
Monday, Nov. 13, 2000

In a stunning development, Palm Beach County election officials announced early Sunday that they intended to begin a manual recount of all ballots cast in the county, after a sample of 4,000 ballots in four precincts begun Saturday added 19 votes to Vice President Al Gore's total. Unless blocked by a court order, elections officials will meet Monday to decide how to proceed on the full manual count.

'How Democrats steal elections' Jon Dougherty and David Kupelian © 2000 WorldNetDaily.com

National Review.com piece titled "Beware of Hanging Chads" Recount lessons learned in the heat of battle
By Arnold Steinberg, a political strategist living in Los Angeles

November 10, 2000

At one in 49 million, the chances of hitting Megabucks on one spin are slim, but not as slim as the odds that Vice President Al Gore would make up as much ground as he has in the Florida recount, according to a UNLV study.

Economics professor Tom Carroll began running statistical equations Thursday on the net gains both Gore, who gained more than 2,200 votes, and Texas Gov. George W. Bush, who added about 700 votes, have made in the recount. He found that the statistical chances for such large and different totals to occur as a result of random glitches was less than infinitesimal.

"The probability of being struck by lightning is about one in a million," Carroll said. "The same person would have to be hit by lightning 30 times to compare with what we've seen in this recount."

FROM THE NETWORK AMERICA ARCHIVES
The IMPORTANCE of these videos is that everywhere the IBM punch card system is used -- which is many, many places in the country -- the Board of Elections ADMITs that a contingent of workers MUST pull or punch votes out of ballots that were only "half punched." The whole thing is ridiculous, as it is virtually impossible to fail to punch your vote all the way through on that system.

Item: Are you hearing about all those reports of 19,000 ballots SPOILED in one county in Florida – I believe it’s Palm County????? Well, one of the MANY dirty little secrets of modern computerized voting --- is that on average 9 or 10 percent of the ballots are SPOILED in every election. 1 out of 10 votes!!! How and why this is done is another subject for another ewire.

BUT – did you notice that they are claiming that THOUSANDS of these ballots were spoiled – SUPPOSEDLY -- because the voter picked TWO CHOICES in the Presidential race. The much more likely explanation is that these ballots were deliberately spoiled by punching a second hole in the ballots for a SECOND Presidential choice. (The opportunity to do this, This manner of invalidating ballots was covered by computer expert Dr. Howard J. Strauss of Princeton University on the 5 minute Dan Rather report on votefraud aired on election eve in November 1988. That report was shown on videotape at our recent Citizens for a Fair Vote Count Convention held in late August of this year.)
