John Kerry Won the Election... Or so Says Harvard University

Author : Gary R. Hess
The elections in America have become a joke.

For those of you who don't know, your vote may not actually count especially if you are from a county which is made up of minorities.

The average percentage of vote not counted during each election year is 3% ranging from 1% in some states to 4% in others.

A study in the year 2002 by Harvard University shows that of the top 100 Counties which held the highest ‘spoilage’ 67 of those counties were made up more than 12% African American whereas the lowest 100 Counties with spoilage were above 75% white.

By mathematical standards this is a STRONG correlation of black votes being excluded. If the votes had been counted in 2000 Al Gore won by a landslide. If they were counted in 2004, John Kerry wins New Mexico and Ohio very handily and becomes president in 2005.

For more info on this:

There are a total of 247,672 votes not counted in Ohio, if you add the 92,672 discarded votes plus the 155,000 provisional ballots (which happened to be predominantly Kerry votes).

If you watched the election during the 2004 race, you would have noticed the huge difference between the exit polls and the actual vote tally. This is the reason. During exit polls every vote is counted no matter if you are white, black, man or woman. But with the actual vote tally the only minority voters vote that counts are the ones who live in a white neighborhood.

Does this mean that the democrats could easily ask for a re-count? Yes, the problem is most of the machines used in Ohio were voting machines -- which did not give out receipts. Also the Secretary of State Katherine Harris would have to agree to the recount, which she would not do because she was the one who excluded more than 179,855 votes.

So what is next for the Democrats? I don't know, but something has to be done with the Civil Rights in this "great" country of ours.
