Times Square, Port Townsend, Kansas City...(UPDATED)

These communties will have vote fraud protest demonstrations tomorrow, 11/27. The one in Times Square starts at 10 am, PST. You may be able to check it out at one of the Times Square webcams. Try Cam 2. Here's the invitation for the Port Townsend event at 1pm. "Stolen Election 2004 Alerts" is a site that has updated information on Ohio and activities around the country. There is new report by a Senior Fellow at the Electronic Privacy Information Center. His name is Wayne Madsen. In the article on onlinejournal.com, Mr. Madsen describes how disgruntled Saudis posed as Homeland Security and FBI agents. They were actually technicians familiar with Diebold, Sequoia, ES&S, Triad, Unilect, and Danaher Controls voting machines. These technicians reportedly hacked the systems to skew the results in favor of Bush, using Enron money that helped finance the operation. A second new Madsen report is claiming "information on the buying of vote riggers with Saudi and former Enron funds has been obtained. The epicenter for the vote rigging operation is Dallas, Texas.The operation may involve retired FBI agents who used a well-established "good ole boy" network to arrange for access to polling precincts by electronic voting machine technicians who took advantage of various November 2 security "lockdowns" to illegally alter the tabulation of votes in favor of Bush." Are they the new cyber-Plumbers? Kos repeats the comments by Ian H. Solomon, Associate Dean of the Yale Law School, "VALIDATE THE VOTE," from the Baltimore Sun. The Guardian UK has, "US campaign behind the turmoil in Kiev." The British Helsinki Human Rights Group claims, "Contrary to the condemnations issued by the team of professional politicians and diplomats deployed by the OSCE mainly from NATO and EU states, the BHHRG observers did not see evidence of government-organized fraud nor of suppression of opposition media," in its report: "Ukraine: 2nd Round of Presidential Election." Sequoia Pacific, another e-voting company, gets the once over in "Thugs, Racketeers Counting American Votes." Update: New Saturday from Bellaciao, a France-based (according to Google) tri-lingual site, "Best of Bellaciao’s Vote Fraud Links." In Florida, ""Suit Seeks Provisional Ballots Re-Examined," from AP. New York's Amsterdam News has, "Voter suppression efforts mired election." Ralph G. Neas, president of the People For the American Way Foundation, has "Fundamental flaws put our voting system at risk," in Newsday. The Internatiional Labor Communications Association (AFL-CIO) has "Labor Must Get Behind Demand for Fair Vote Count." Update: Bloggerman (Keith Olbermann) stirs from his vacation stupor to knock down Wayne Madsen's posts, linked above.
