Dr. Fitrakis,

Thank you so much for investigating and writing about vote suppression and fraud.  I keep hearing the Republicans preach the demise of the Democratic party as though it goes without saying that the majority of voters agreed with them on the major issues, when the polls show the reverse is the case.  And while there’s nothing wrong with introspection and regrouping when needed, it’s seems highly premature for the Democrats to begin this process when we don’t even know if we’re actually losing elections! 

By shining a light on Republican dirt and insisting that the government (and the Democratic party for that matter) do their jobs and investigate this, you’re performing a very important public service.  Let’s get a correct vote count – better yet, a revote with paper ballots, nonpartisan election officials, and international observers – and then if Kerry still loses, fine, then we can all roll into a fetal position, suck our thumbs, and wonder where we went wrong.  Until that time, I’m not buying it, and I’m so grateful that you’re not either.

  Big Thanks!
