$100,000 Reward
FOR INFORMATION ON HOW SAXBY CHAMBLISS "WON" THE GEORGIA SENATE RACE IN 2002!
Velvet Revolution ("VR"), a non-profit dedicated to clean and honest
elections, today offers a
$100,000 reward for hard information leading to the arrest and
conviction of any person or persons who helped to rig the 2002 Senate
race in Georgia in favor of Saxby Chambliss. That election
pitted the war hero Max Cleland, a popular incumbent, against
far-right novice Saxby Chambliss. The pre-election polls showed
Cleland with a comfortable lead--and yet Chambliss "won"
by a wide margin.
To date, the truth behind that upset "victory" (and the equally
surprising win by Sonny Perdue,
the rightist candidate for governor) has been confirmed by three
different whistle-blowers--
including Chris Hood, who worked for Diebold in 2002.
In a video interview with VR, Hood has stated that, not long before
Election Day, he was ordered
by Bob Urosevich, president of Diebold's voting-machine division (and
a self-proclaimed GOP partisan) to place illegal software patches on
hundreds of voting machines in the Democratic-leaning counties of
Fulton and DeKalb. Hood, and the other Diebold employees involved in
that
stealth operation, were told not to discuss these patches with any
state officials. Documents
provided to VR by Hood show that Cathy Cox, then Georgia's Secretary
of State, had no knowledge
of those patches at the time.
Hood's account has been corroborated by cyber-security expert Stephen
Spoonamore, who has
stated that Hood gave him a copy of the Georgia patch, which he
analyzed and then turned it over
to the FBI Cyber Squad in Washington for investigation. According to
Spoonamore, the patch
could have been used to flip the votes cast on Diebold's machines
from Cleland to Chambliss.
In his expert opinion, Max Cleland was the real winner of that
election, which Saxby Chambliss
stole with Diebold's help.
Georgia still uses Diebold's paperless touchscreen machines for its
elections. Computer scientists
have shown that those machines are highly vulnerable to rigging via
computer patches, or viruses, that can be installed in seconds. This
is a matter of grave concern, as Georgia is about to hold a
runoff election between Chambliss and his Democratic challenger, Jim
Martin. The runoff will
start on Dec. 2 (while early voting starts tomorrow, on Nov. 18).
VR wants to ensure that this contest is not manipulated
electronically by partisans intent on helping Chambliss keep his
Senate seat. In order to prevent another stolen race in Georgia,
those involved
in rigging the 2002 election must now be exposed and prosecuted.
