Max Cleland's "loss" was rigged, say two whistle-blowers
In an exclusive interview, a former Diebold vote machine contractor
who was in charge of preparing the 2002 election between Saxby
Chambliss and Max Cleland has stated that the software patches placed
on the voting machines in the weeks prior to the election could have
rigged the election in favor of Republican Chambliss. The
contractor, Chris Hood, was ordered by the President of Diebold, Bob
Urosevich, to install uncertified patches on machines in
predominantly Democratic counties supposedly to fix a clock function
which it did not do so, according to Mr. Hood. Saxby Chambliss won
a surprising victory after trailing badly in the pre-election polls.
The interview with Mr. Hood, posted by Velvet Revolution ("VR"), a DC
based non-profit dedicated to a clean and accountable government, can

Rebecca Abrahams, a former ABC News producer who conducted the
interview, states, "The candidates running in the upcoming Georgia
election should be concerned about the veracity and validity of the
November election results after anomalies in the last election and
the statement by Chris Hood. In fact, Jim Martin, who is challenging
Chambliss' re-election, should ask Chambliss if he has any knowledge
that the 2002 election was rigged and whether he knew that Georgia
citizens voted on electronic voting machines that had been patched
with uncertified software days before the election. Since such
conduct violated Georgia law, the 2002 election was clearly tainted."
Stephen Spoonamore, a cyber security expert and lifelong Republican,
has also stated that he believes that the 2002 Georgia Senate race
was rigged in favor of Chambliss. "If you look at the case of Saxby
Chambliss, that's ridiculous. The man was not elected. He lost that
election by five points. Max Cleland won. They flipped the votes,
clear as day," Spoon said in another exclusive interview posted on
YouTube by VR at

VR has been working with whistleblowers who have stated that the GOP,
under the direction of Karl Rove, has been using computers to change
election results. In order to protect the 2008 election from such
manipulations, a federal lawsuit is being pursued in Ohio to take
depositions from those who have been implicated in this illegal
strategy. Complete coverage of this suit is a
