Raw Story link is up.
Many of us know from last week that the North Carolina Board of Elections certified Diebold election machines despite the fact that they, along with 2 other sketchy vendors, wouldn't disclose their code per the new election law to the NC Board of Elections. The state election Board had no comment to my calls and have not posted any statement on the decision.
That law was in reaction to the 2,500 lost votes in the last NC election. Here's a good summary of that story.
The news just breaking on Raw Story, and with Brad Blog at least giving us a teaser, has to do with a Diebold insider who is now saying that there was in fact some manipulation of votes and, per the Brad Blog teaser, that the Diebold CEO is the diabolical figure behind this fascist insanity.
We all suspected it. Now, let's hope that the facts come out to prove that the exit polls were in fact correct (as they usually are) in the past 2 elections and that Bushco has taken us firmly into the realm of Nazi Germany.

RAW STORY's Miriam Raftery is set to run a new piece on the Diebold Insider, dubbed as "DIEB-THROAT", in our original BRAD BLOG EXCLUSIVE back in September.
Raftery previously delivered the terrific San Diego CityBeat story in October on all manners of electile dysfunction since the November 2004 election mess, right on up to the recent Mayoral boondoggle on Diebold machinery in San Diego.
Amongst the items to be reported by Raftery's for RAW from her exclusive interview with the anonymous whistleblower who has chosen to keep their identity undisclosed for the time being due to "a continuing sensitive relationship with the company":
Diebold CEO Walden O'Dell is "the number one culprit" in putting pressure on employees to "make the numbers." ... DIEB-THROAT compares the massive new wave of Electronic Voting Machines to a Civil Rights-era "denial of rights" ... New details and perspectives on the Georgia 2002 gubernatorial election and Diebold installed software patches "never certified by the state."... Heavy Democratic counties ended up electing Republicans ... DIEB-THROAT says such patches have been installed "many times," it's just that Diebold "got caught in Georgia and California." ... Diebold ballots can be programmed to reject certain types of votes...
Much more and details Tuesday from RAW STORY...DEVELOPING...
Will update...
