Senator
Kerry's and Senator Edwards' state counsel
for Ohio has issued a letter to Ohio Republican
Secretary of State and Bush-Cheney '04 chair
Kenneth Blackwell demanding an official
investigation into voting machine tampering
in Hocking County, RAW
STORY has learned.
The letter, which was sent
Wednesday, also asks that Blackwell require
hand counts in any county where machines
have been compromised, or have an independent
expert inspect the machines. Hocking County
elections official Sherole Eaton alleged
that a Triad Election Systems representative
disabled a machine and tried to plant unverified
information into the recount at the House
Judiciary Committee's election hearing Monday.
