11. They should check the math on everything...
...to see if state numbers adds up to national, etc. Did the actual percentage of voter turnout nationally jive with the actual numbers?

One of the tinfoilhat theories I'm entertaining:
That on the eVoting machines with no paper trail, the machine code sends an extra vote to Bush for every -say- 4 votes Kerry gets everywhere. Either in the machine itself or the GEMS tabulator. That's just a number, I don't know how accurate. In precincts with low Bush numbers, he still wouldn't win there, but it would inflate his overall state total. In precincts that were tight, he would win, by a slightly higher margin, and in precincts that were pro-Bush he would win with a higher margin anyway.

The point here is that the better turn out for Kerry, the more insurance of a win for the Shrub. That also explains the fairly uniform deviance from the exit polls where these machines were used.

I pray we will ever learn the truth...
