Ohio Governor Race - Fox Guarding Henhouse

Ken Blackwell is ready to cash in on the Republican promise of putting him
in the Governor's mansion in 2006 after he proved that he was indispensable
in the successful plot to rig the 2004 Presidential election in Ohio for
George W Bush.

As secretary of state in 2004, Blackwell held broad powers for setting
election standards in everything from the processing of voter registration
to overseeing the distribution of voting machines and ballots. He was also
simultaneously serving as co-chairman in the Bush-Cheney campaign in Ohio.

Which means, in 2006, with Blackwell still in the position of secretary of
state, once again voters in Ohio have a fox guarding the voting henhouse.
Only this time the stakes are even higher for Blackwell because his
political future is on the line.

And what was this plot and how did he manage to pull it off? My guess
is that the author doesn't address that.

I was wrong. She did address is...in part...and lied. Voting machine
distribution is not done by the Secretary of State.
