ABC News denied the charges. Mary Hergert, a Colorado elector for George W. Bush, told the newspaper that she felt intimidated by the caller from ABC. "Hergert said the caller said he was 'Ed from ABC News' and asked if she would ever consider voting for Al Gore, then said it is unconstitutional for her to be bound by state law to follow Colorado voters' preference for Bush," the newspaper reported. "It was bothersome," said Miss Hergert, who served as Mr. Bush's Weld County campaign chairman. A second Colorado elector, Rob Dieter, also mentioned a call from ABC News when the Rocky Mountain News asked if anyone had tried to influence his vote. ABC News spokeswoman Su-Lin Nichols apologized for any confusion caused when a group of staffers called electors across the country with a series of identical questions in preparation of a possible story on the Electoral College vote. "We feel they acted professionally," she said. However, Miss Hergert was not appeased. "I think the mainstream media has enough to answer for," she said, referring to the television networks' repeated reversals of results in Florida. ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: *Michael Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
