Unsafe at Any Vote Count

Ralph Nader wants a recount. Just in New Hampshire -- where he lost by 335,000 votes. John Kerry carried New Hampshire and Nader is not interested in changing any results. He claims there are irregularities in the AccuVote Diebold Machines used at polling places. In a letter to New Hampshire's Secretary of State, Nader claims the machines produced irregularities in favor of President Bush by 5% to 15%.

Oddly enough, that would be enough to change the Ohio results where Diebold machines were also used.

And there've been rumblings in the tin foil hat circles that the machines. They're built by a company with executives supportive of the President. That's just goooooood conspiracy theory.

Mr. Nader loses no credibility in challenging the idea. Senator Kerry could. That also makes for gooooood conspiracy theory. (WashPost)
