- The election integrity community is abuzz with news that
candidate Dennis Kucinich will ask for a recount in New Hampshire, and
Ron Paul fans have been pushing him to recount as well. Careful.

- NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION INTEGRITY ADVOCATE NANCY TOBI
IS CORRECT:
-
- "We have no control over the ballot chain of custody
and we have learned the pain from the 2004 Nader recount, in which only
11 districts were counted, chosen by a highly questionable person, and
then nothing showed up. Now all we hear is how the Nader recount validated
the machines."
-
- As Tobi says, "A candidate asking for a recount
may well be a tool used to 'prove' everything was okay and then that candidate
will be further discredited."
-
- I'll go further than that. The only way a recount makes
any sense at all in New Hampshire is AFTER an assessment is made of the
chain of custody issues. If the chain of custody isn't intact the recount
won't be worth a cup of warm spit.
-
- TOBI:
-
- "This is high stakes.
-
- "You do not walk into a battle ground not knowing
where the snipers are, just because you were invited. Strategically, going
into something like this where you have NO CONTROL is foolishness.
-
- "And I say this as one of the strongest recount
proponents of former times. Things I have come to learn and understand
have changed my mind. The recount is someone else's game, not ours.
-
- "In the recount, we have no control, and we have
already lost 48 long hours of ballot chain of custody oversight.
-
- "We need citizen control and oversight. This is
not going to come from the recount. If the election was rigged...don't
you think the riggers would have a backup Plan B for a rigged recount,
knowing how easy it is to get a recount in NH?
-
- No. It is time to take control. "
-
- BLACK BOX VOTING:
-
- The following is excerpted from our New Hampshire election
protection information published in November 2007:
-
- quote: Knowing that the greatest opportunities for election
fraud are with insiders, this tells us something about what to examine
first. If you are a person with inside access in New Hampshire, because
any candidate can ask to recount any location, if you plan to manipulate
the election you'll want to make sure you can achieve ballot substitution,
ballot removal, or ballot stuffing. You need a strategy just in case someone
asks for a hand count.
