Electoral Fraud
 

Some of you may be aware that there are accusations made by many in the United States that the two elections which made George Bush president were rigged. Votes were supposedly either stolen, disallowed or miscounted depending on which source you care to listen to.

Smiling smugly to ourselves, we imagine that in this best of all possible countries, similar things cannot happen here. Think again!

And while you consider the implications of that article, remember that a General Election is due in May this year. Remember also who Blair's best mate is. Think about one of the most ditrusted and derided politicians of recent years, desperate to lead his party into a third election victory.

Re: Electoral Fraud
 

Some idea of the extent of fraud is contained in this extract from a larger article in The Times this morning...

"Poll rigger faces jail

A FORMER Labour councillor faces jail after admitting rigging an election.

Muhammed Hussain, 61, from Blackburn, Lancashire, pleaded guilty yesterday at Preston Crown Court to conspiring to defraud local elections in May 2002.

He won a seat on Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council with 1,728 votes and a majority of 685. But 233 postal votes were fraudulent. Hussain had asked others to collect postal ballot forms from voters and fill them in themselves. He was granted bail until sentencing on April 8, but Judge Peter Openshaw told him to “brace yourself for a custodial sentence”."

Re: Electoral Fraud
 

I sincerely hope that anyone found guilty of involvement in fraudulent voting gets a custodial sentence. They need to be shown that we won't stand for any of that there here.

It makes a total mockery of democracy. :mad:
