A reader takes on the New York Times

A reader sent a letter to the New York Times vis-a-vis that publication's recent attempt to "debunk" allegations of voter fraud. This reader gave permission to republish, and I thought you folks might find his words -- and links -- of interest:

Mr. Zeller -

You wrote an excellent piece in Sept. 19 in the Times exposing Diebold and ES&S irregularities and hacking weaknesses.

How can you turn about face and sweepingly debunk 287 election-fraud related events reported by the 2nd tier media, not to mention over 30,000 fraud related complaints nationally since Nov.1, 2004?

1) Read the thread all the way down since Monday, on MSNBC's Keith Olbermann's Countdown:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6210240/ . Facts, raw data, and more facts.

Conspiracy theorists?
2) A new study (PDF) from Dr. Steven Freeman, U. of PA studying the odds for exit poll discrepancies: http://www.buzzflash.com/alerts/04/11/The_unexplained_exit_poll_discrepancy_v00k.pdf

Conspiracy theories?

3) 287 media reported election anomalies, open fraud and irregularities. Searchable by state & issue: http://www.votersunite.org/electionproblems.asp

Conspiracy theories?

4) Credible eyewitness & whistleblower:

They're all just tin hat conspiracy nuts, eh?

Time to take off the blinders, sir. Don't be a part of the problem. Help fix the problem.
