Bloggermann's got an interesting update on the Ohio recount:
(The Alliance for Democracy) will be asking one high court justice to set the election results aside, pending a full investigation and hearing. (The Alliance's lawyer, Cliff) Arnebeck said today he believes that if all ballots were counted in what he calls a "traditional context,” the outcome would not just swing from President Bush’s 130,000 vote election night lead — it would swing all the way in the opposite direction, and give Kerry a 130,000 vote lead.Why is Ukraine's election on our front pages and evening and cable news shows practically everyday but our own election story is M.I.A.? It can't be about circulation and ratings. I thought this made for riveting TV four years ago:
Arnebeck sounded a little like a protestor in Kiev: "Our presidential election affects not just this country but all the citizens of the world. And therefore it's absolutely essential that the person who assumes the mantle of that office has the full confidence of our public and the world community that it was an honest election.” Amen.
