Professor Bob Drake Distributing Photos of Altered 2004 Ballots
Thursday, September 28, 2006

Posted by The Dean of Cincinnati

At the recent showing of Stealing America Vote by Vote at the Esquire, I ran into UC Professor Bob Drake, who was talking to people and distributing a photograph of an altered ballot from the 2004 presidential election.  We took a few moments to interview him about his experiences with examining altered ballots from Clermont County.

Drake says he saw about twenty ballots like this, from the random sample of three percent of all ballots.  It would seem, statistically, that several hundred ballots may have been altered in this manner.

But no one will ever know.  The ballots have been destroyed.  This photograph is all that remains!
