Ohio Election Mess - Lots of Links

Ohio's Electors are supposed to make their vote tomorrow. Representative John Conyers (D-MI) and the Democratic members of the House Committee on the Judiciary are supposed to hold a forum on the 2004 election at Columbus City Hall tomorrow. If my work schedule permits, I am going to attempt to sit in on the forum. Supposedly members of the Republican Party are doing their best to make sure that the forum does not occur.

Doesn't it strike anyone else as just a little bit odd that the Republicans are trying so hard to make sure that a recount does not occur? What are they trying to hide?

Here are some links to various updates about the whole election mess:

The Columbus Dispatch is finally starting to get a little interested in this story. I don't understand why more of the media isn't covering this story. The Washington Post is still able to coast on their coverage of Watergate more than 30 years ago. What sort of publicity would the news organization get that breaks open this election mess get?
