C-SPAN Junkie

So I was watching S-CPAN this morning and I noticed they were talking about the election results in Cuyahoga County. Apparently there were less votes counted in 2004 than the 2000 election. According to the panel one of the reasons is the large number of unexplained "purging" of registrations during 2000-2002 making the large registration drives in 2003 and 2004 barely enough to recapture the base of voters in the county. There was also a student from Kenyon University that talked about voting conditions that forced people to leave the voting lines just to get something to drink or eat and that some people fainted. There were also several people that mentioned just an overwhelming number of possibilities for fraud.
