Here is a timely request from Paddy Shaffer;
I have a bit of research that needs done, and wondered if any or all of you might want to help with it. Here is what I have in mind, let me and the others here know if you are interested. A couple others that have helped a lot with research, and I'll see if I can get a couple people working on this....
I want the names of all the House and Senate members that stood up and asked to have Ohio's 2004 election investigated in the afternoon on January 6, 2005. Both those who signed, and those who gave a speech in support of it. I was in the Senate Gallery watching the Senators speak, as were many others, some in The Ohio Election Justice Campaign.
I also want their speeches, and contact information. They are in the Congressional Record for that day.
This way they can be contacted, reminded of what they said, and asked to join and support the Ohio Election Justice Campaign. We will also ask that they assist us with encouraging both Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann to meet with our group and honor our requested 3 hour meeting, and the three requests we have made.
1. Listen to our speakers
2. Present their plan to investigate and do the needed legal prosecution of the 2004 election crimes and subsequent crimes.
3. Have dialoged with us about the plan and explain how the public will be able to follow the progress of the legal work to be certain that it is finally being conducted.
If you are able to set it all up that we can make it available on a link on the Link site, and Steve might also be willing to put it on his Link site. This way it will be easy for many people to utilize it as snail mail so these Congressional members receive it in paper form, or people can cut and paste and use it for our petition letter site, or other email correspondence. They can also be encouraged to share those speeches and their concern with others... and get the group support to grow. Even Hillary Clinton got up and spoke about Ohio's bad election. Barbara Boxer was the only one with enough strength to sign it from the Senate. The US House had about 31 members sign (as I remember, and I'm not certain that is right).
Talk to me, and talk to each other. With your help, can we get this done?
If we can get these members of Congress saturated with paper letters, email letters, phone calls, and get some responses coming back, maybe we can then turn some attention to the others like Marcy Kaptur, Ohio Democrat, US House, who voted to certify Ohio's election, and went to the Ukraine to investigate their election, but didn't look at her own state.
Make it a Powerful Day,

Regarding concerns by Republicans at the Ohio Statehouse, Jennifer Brunner may change those who she had chosen to test Ohio Voting Machines. According to the Columbus Dispatch article by Mark Niquette, dated Friday September 14, 2007
Matt Blaze, an associate professor of Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania, had been one of the academic computer experts selected to work on the proposed $1.8 million study.
But after a Dispatch story yesterday highlighted items from Blaze's personal blog- including a bingo game he created mocking excuses machine vendors give for security flaws in their systems - Brunner said she's reconsidering Blaze's role.
the article later states...
State Senators John Carey, R-Wellston, and Steve Strivers, R-Columbus, sent Brunner a letter yesterday with 23 questions about the study. She plans to respond by early next week and meet with them to discuss their concerns.
We need 23 hard-hitting questions...
Mark Brown, one of our OEJC supporters, and my brother, just called with a wonderful idea. We need to present to State Senators John Carey, R-Wellston, and Steve Strivers, R-Columbus a list of our own 23 questions on election matters. So have a field day folks, put together your best questions, and we will pull together the best 23 we can pick, and present them to the Senators, and to the media.

New Fear For OHIO... Not Election Fraud, but Tic Tac Fruit.
Note the date, this was written August 31, 2007

New Fear For OHIO... Not Election Fraud, but Tic Tac Fruit.
Group calls for meeting with Ohio Attorney General
and Ohio Secretary of State.
The Ohio Election Justice Campaign
By Paddy Shaffer
Director, Artists Creating Justice
August 31, 2007
Now here is a little ditty from the Thursday August 30, 2007 Columbus Dispatch in an article by James Nash, about Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann and his investigation into "Tic Tac Fruit". Yes you read that right, "Tic Tac Fruit". Some of us are concerned with our massive election problems and the criminals running them. But not our new Attorney General. It is Tic Tac Fruit that has his interest, a gambling machine, like pinball, but you need some skill and you can win money. Well according to the current article, and one of several days ago, it seems to be a big threat to Ohioans. Storeowners don't sound so sure that we are to be scared. According to Talmadge Long, the owner of "Lucky You" a Jeffersonville parlor, he was unsure of his next move, as Marc Dann wants to shut down all these machines in Ohio. Talmadge said, " I'm just a businessman, I don't know what the hell they want me to do."
The quote from Marc Dann in a written statement is,
"We will fight this battle with every necessary resource".
From this article, and a past one I have learned that the Attorney Generals Office has sent out 700 certified letters on this issue, and has the police visiting game parlors. Heck on Wednesday, August 29th investigators went to game parlors in Jeffersonville, Tiffin and Calcutta. Hour’s later Dann's office filed court motions seeking orders to close the businesses for allegedly violating the Consumer Sales Practices Act, which prohibits deceptive marketing.
Marc Dann has called on the public to help report gambling machines to his office through anew toll-free phone number, 1-877-AG4-OHIO (1-877-244-6446), or a new Web site, www.ag4ohio.gov .
Wow, he wants the public to help!
That is just what this group of citizens is trying to do, but this is on another issue. Theft of the US Presidency should be of a higher priority than Tic Tac Fruit. Activists, Journalists, Filmmakers, and people who want to observer a meeting where the beginning of the justice process for Ohio’s Election Theft will begin. Many have joined with Paddy Shaffer, asking to meet for 3 hours with Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann, and Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner. They have now waited 3 weeks and 2 days, and those offices have not yet scheduled the requested meeting. Why the wait? This project is now called The Ohio Election Justice Campaign.
The group, under the leadership of Paddy and newly formed Artists Creating Justice, are planning for a group of speakers to each briefly address a variety of election issues, and then to have plenty of time for dialog with the Attorney General and Secretary of State. Shaffer and the group have asked that Brunner and Dann have a plan on how together they will begin the investigation of the 2004 election fraud and destruction or records issues. More problems have happened since November of 2004, and some of those will be addressed also, like rigged recounts, many counties are guilty of that. There are just so many problems, what has happened in Ohio has affected the nation, and the world. We look forward to hearing what they intend to do, and reporting it to the world. The group has asked, through Shaffer for a plan to be set up that the public can follow the progress of the investigation, and subsequent legal actions. After what this country has suffered through, we do not want to be told that we can’t know their progress, because it is under investigation. When it is the citizens who have done the investigation for years, and Paddy is one of those investigators, we have earned the right to know how it is proceeding, and it is our only way to know, that it actually is being implemented and followed to completion.
Just imagine if the Ohio Attorney General applied the kind of effort to the Ohio Boards of Elections, that he has applied to the gambling threat of Tic Tac Fruit.
Besides, we did most of the investigation for them. The file at the Ohio Attorney General's office, which has been started by information that Paddy Shaffer provided, with lots of election fraud data, is "Public Integrity Unit File PIU 07-010". It has already been reviewed, yet Associate Attorney General Chelsea Rice has determined with the Attorney Generals Legal Department, and Lloyd Early, Director of Special Investigations for the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation that there is nothing to investigate. Paddy has organized this meeting because of that, and because of Jennifer Brunner’s comments that the Ohio Boards of Elections did nothing wrong in destroying the federally protected 2004 ballots. Over one and a half million are now forever gone, these were evidence.
The Attorney General’s office received this information in late July and early August. Notice that it was only file number 010, or 10. They don't seem too busy to look into election fraud. What will it take to get this meeting scheduled? Public Pressure? 2008 is looming ahead of us, how long can the state of Ohio and the nation wait?
Artists Creating Justice is proud to announce that the following Patriot Americans are all asking to meet with Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann.

Dear Jennifer Brunner, Marc Dann, and Staff,
I am Paddy Shaffer, an Ohio Resident, Artist, Wife, Mother, Election Activist and Investigator, and I write today on behalf of The Ohio Election Justice Campaign. The OEJC started as a simple request for an opportunity to meet with you. This effort has now grown to a national campaign for legal accountability for election crimes in Ohio. The Ohio Election Justice Campaign wants to hear back from your two offices on a date for which we can schedule the three-hour meeting with Jennifer Brunner and Marc Dann. The purpose of the meeting would be to resolve how your offices will investigate the crimes of the 2004 election, as well, those crimes that have happened since need to be addressed. We wish for the Rule of Law to be restored through legal prosecutions. We also ask that your offices provide the public a way to follow your progress in resolving long-standing problems regarding our elections in Ohio. We have planned for a number of speakers from The Ohio Election Justice Campaign in the first hour of this meeting. Hours two and three are for you, Jennifer Brunner, Marc Dann, and your office staff to explain how we can accomplish our mutual goals in restoring the Rule of the Law in Ohio's elections. Finally, within those last two hours, we would also like to have dialog with you on this crucial subject as to how we can proceed together restoring the Rule of Law. We want a way for the public to follow the progress of the investigation and prosecution.
I, along with millions of other voters, listened to the campaign promises of candidates Marc Dann and Jennifer Brunner running for the critical offices of Ohio Attorney General and Ohio Secretary of State. Do you remember them? We were all so hopeful. We were hoping our election problems in Ohio would be resolved. I am enclosing a link that will take you to video of your campaign promises. At this moment, Marc Dann’s portion of the video is available. Soon it will have five parts, including Jennifer Brunner’s campaign promises as well.
What you promise is what we need. Please, just do what you promised!
Dann and Brunner Campaign Promises Video - HYPERLINK "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RygV2aiszQU"
NOT HERE TO FIGHT, ___JUST WANT THE JOB DONE.
I have done everything a citizen can do to help her country… I have personally investigated election crimes, when no law enforcement did the job. I have tried through the former Attorney General Jim Petro and County Prosecutors to get our election laws and public record laws enforced. I have paid for records requests, hundreds of dollars of them, paid my expenses, gasoline, long distance phone calls, and more to investigate these crimes, when no law enforcement would do their job. I pay for this with my grocery money. I have participated in radio call shows, and press conferences, and supplied the media with crime information, for which they generally ignore. I have endured name calling by the media and others, but also the love, appreciation and support of real patriots from across this country, and from other countries who care about democracy. I have made many friends, and probably a few enemies on this journey. I hope we will end up friends because what I want is reasonable.
I want to help you both do the best you can in your current jobs. I keep trying; keep sending you information that should be a great help to your job. I don’t do it to seeking credit. I just want to see you do the work, and you get the credit. I am very frustrated now, you have occupied your office for nine months, and it is almost 2008, another Presidential Election Year… and not much has been resolved. Even the two Cuyahoga County BOE workers, Jacqueline Maiden and Kathleen Dreamer and are getting a new trial, one wonders, will they go to prison for 18 months, or walk away?
I have repeatedly asked for a meeting with both Jennifer Brunner and Marc Dann. I have now formed this group, The Ohio Election Justice Campaign, and because this meeting and issue is so very important.
This is the Theft Of The Office Of The United States Presidential Election, and The Theft Of The Ohio Supreme Court.
What could you be working on
that could be more important than that?
I have many pieces of my ongoing investigation in this rather long letter. I do not do this with a public audience to embarrass, to anger, or to pick a battle. I do this because I do not see any other way of getting your attention, without applying public pressure. You and I both know that I have tried and tried and tried. Please do not hold anger against me. Just help the passionate citizens who have joined me to insist that you bring investigation and legal justice to the election crimes committed in Ohio. That is all I ask, and all I ever asked of you. The office of the Ohio Secretary of State is now sitting on the remaining evidence, over 2200 boxes of evidence of the biggest crime ever perpetrated on our republic. Could you please do something with it? If you do not know how to do it, or what to look for, we probably already have, or have already shared it with you. Most of us in The Ohio Election Justice Campaign used to be just citizens, but now armed with evidence, truth, facts. We investigated the elections when the former AG and SOS, the DOJ, the FBI, the Ohio State Highway Patrol and our media, refused. As victims and witnesses to the greatest crime ever, we citizens took up the gauntlet and did our own investigations. Now, we know how to do investigations and we have done them for you. We want to help you, not alienate or anger you. We have save you a fortune in money, so much of this evidence, as cold cases could not now even be collected. We ask you to look.
It has now been 31 days since the meeting was requested; on August 8th, 2007, and 2008 is only a few short months away. Many additional election crimes have been brought to your attention since that day. There has been no response to the exposure of these crimes, nor to the many crime stories that had already been sent to you, with the exception of a letter from the Attorney General’s office letting me know that there is "nothing to investigate" (attached to this letter). Those stories covered a wide range of topics, from rigged recounts (which got Maiden and Dreamer 18 month prison sentences); theft of the United States Presidency; theft of the Ohio Supreme Court; fake ballots; Warren County Homeland Security Alert; Triad switching out the hard drive on a tabulator prior to the recount; and so much more. It is troubling that with so much in the way of legal work to be done, and the obvious need to let people know your plan of action, there has still been no meeting scheduled. Why do we even have to beg you to for a simple meeting? Last year as both Jennifer and Marc campaigned for Secretary of State and Attorney General; you told us you would take care of this problem. What happened to “Due Diligence?” It is your job to do this investigation and the following needed legal actions.
When I originally talked to Jennifer’s Executive Assistant Bobbie Gilbert, while I was in your office on Monday August 6, 2007, she said meetings were being scheduled out about three weeks (in advance). It has been longer than that, we have not yet met, nor have we even scheduled. It is as though you do not plan to meet with this group, yet I am sure that is not your intention. We hope that is not the case. Many of us remember your campaign promises to deal with these election problems. Tim Kettler, who was also a candidate for Secretary of State with Jennifer, is one of our speakers for this requested meeting. He plans to explain how the Coshocton County Recount was rigged, including the involvement of Pat Wolfe, who still works in the office of the Secretary of State. You should be interested. These issues are so important to the nation, and many hundreds of thousands of people have actually died, as a result of the decisions made by a man sitting in the office of The President Of The United States Of America, a man that was not elected. This is very serious.
During the campaign season, Marc Dann even promised to form an “Election Integrity Division”. I called Marc’s office and spoke with executive assistant, Colleen Brown who said, “We have no Election Integrity Division”. When I told Colleen who I was, and that I was reading through Marc’s campaign promises, and he said he was going to form an Election Integrity Division. Colleen said she would get me help. Then I was put on hold for a long time, what seemed like several minutes passed, and then one of those annoying recorded voices came on for “The Help Center”. The recording played and finished with “all representatives are still assisting other callers.” It played over and over and over… and when I could stand it no more, I hung up and called Colleen back. Now no one answered the phone, and there was not even a way to leave a message. Hmm…. This finished at around 1:45 p.m. on September 5, 2007.
During the 2006 Campaign season Marc Dann had a blog, here is one entry…

HYPERLINK "http://www.blogforohio.com/index.php?itemid=107" Dann calls on Bureau of Workers’ Compensation to release internal audit that shows political favors helped reduce some employer’s rates (post in part)
Posted by HYPERLINK "http://www.blogforohio.com/index.php?memberid=1" admin at 09:50 PM. Filed under: HYPERLINK "http://www.blogforohio.com/index.php?catid=1" General
Marc, I must ask what is happening when your office writes me a letter where they wrote in part, “After reviewing your complaint and the information you provided to Mr. Early, we have decided that there is insufficient evidence to pursue criminal charges relating to these matters.” That letter (attached) now apparently sits in Public Integrity Unit File PIU 07-010 with the large amount of information I sent to your employee on election crime and fraud issues. When I wrote you about this, and about who was this employee, who was Lloyd Early, you emailed me back on August 12, 2007, “Lloyd works for me." Have you as yet looked in that file? Do you agree with the above finding? I have repeatedly sent more information to your office, and to Jennifer’s about election crimes, yet no one even responds. In the above statement you are quoted talking about a Bureau of Workers Compensation cover-up. What do we call the Ohio election mess, if your office, and Brunner’s won’t deal with it? A cover-up? I do not want to believe this.
Marc do you remember in the spring of 2006 when Dr. Richard Hayes Phillips and Paddy Shaffer scheduled a 30 minute meeting with then State Senator, Marc Dann. We provided you with a folder of election crimes we had investigated. Did you look into any of it?
At the recent Secretary of State’s Voting Rights Institute meeting on August 21, 2007 Jennifer Brunner talked to the participants about the missing 2004 election records. Below is what was written in the minutes of the meeting, provided to Paddy Shaffer.
FROM VOTING RIGHTS INSTITUTE (VRI) MEETING:
Secretary Brunner then chose to speak to the issue of the 2004 ballots. The 22-month retention requirement for these ballots was over on Sept 2, 2006. The boards were sent an email from a paralegal on Sept 8th with a copy of Judge Marbley’s Sept 7th order attached, but no instructions were provided. On April 9th, Secretary Brunner sent a directive instructing all Boards of Election to send their 2004 ballots to Columbus for safe storage. The regional liaisons assisted in transporting these ballots. In all, 7 counties had no ballots to return. Due to glitches, erroneous information, and accidents, some counties had only partial records. Every county sent an inventory and a letter of explanation to Columbus with the ballots. A major concern was unused ballots. Many of these were destroyed, while voted ballots were kept. This information was all turned over to Judge Marbley. We have had no updates from his court as of today. Secretary Brunner highlighted the importance of her office focusing on the 2008 election.
I question how the word “glitches” can be used to describe any method for which the physical evidence of the theft of the office of the United States President was destroyed or discarded. I have documented 11 times when they knew to keep these records.
Are you aware that to destroy these records after 30 days, which some counties claim to have done… would be on January 1, 2005? The Boxer Rebellion and the date the election was certified were on January 6, 2006. So how can it be OK with Jennifer for them to have already destroyed records? How many of them did this? Will they do it again?
I also must question at this time if Jennifer Brunner has made herself familiar with the Board of Elections records on the missing 2004 records. She has spoken on them, and been quoted in the press saying they did not “intentionally destroy” ballots. The problem with that comment is that in their letters both Warren and Fayette Counties said they “intentionally destroyed” ballots. I have this from your records. This seems like you either do not know what is in the records held by the Secretary of State’s office, or you are misinforming the media and the public
In the above writing from the recent meeting of the Voting Rights Institute it appears from the minutes of the meeting that Jennifer told the participants that, “Every county sent an inventory and a letter of explanation to Columbus with the ballots.” I am familiar with your records. As soon as I read that I knew there seemed to be a problem. First, counties that turned over all their records did not need to submit a letter of explanation, but this is trivial. The bigger item is not. I wrote a record request to your office, requesting the letters of explanation for Columbiana, Coshocton, Darke, Lawrence, Licking, Lorain, Madison, Miami, Morgan, Noble, Summit, Tuscarawas, Wayne, Wood, and Wyandot Counties. This is 15 counties. See, you could only have letters for those counties, if those letters had recently arrived, because I already have all of the others.
According to SOS Elections Council, Brian Green, in a letter dated August 29, 2007,
“Those records you seek do not exist. As such, this office cannot provide them to you. If you have additional concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office.”
Well, I’m contacting you, and I have a concern. So again, either you do not know your offices records, or when you explained to the VRI group that you had all the letters of explanation for all 56 counties, which would give the appearance that you were content with the explanations given for all 56 counties that are missing some or all of their 2004 ballots. So how can you say none of the boards did anything wrong, to the VRI group, and to the media… when you do not have letters from 15 of the counties, and many of the letters you do have are, well frankly, absurd. The bottom line for myself and for many others across this nation is, those are the people’s records, evidence of a major crime against the US and its people. Lots of it was intentionally destroyed. The paper of Richard Hayes Phillips called “Shreds of Evidence” available at HYPERLINK "http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2709" http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2709 , which has previously been given to both the Attorney Generals office and to the Secretary of States office will help you to understand what has happened. They need investigated.
As for the remaining records, after the ongoing court case has finished, for which Judge Marbley ordered those records protected and given to the SOS office, one of your staff told me that those 2004 election records would probably be destroyed. Jennifer, again I remind you, and Marc Dann, the evidence of the theft of the United States Presidential Election and evidence of the theft of the Ohio Supreme Court is in those records. Those are the people’s records. They need sorted into 88 counties, or actually 81 counties, because 7 counties turned over no records. I know that they are not sorted now, but all mixed up. The signature books and poll books need collected from the BOE’s, as I have repeatedly suggested to you. I gave to Jennifer Brunner on August 6th, in person via Bobbie Gilbert an RC-3 form, which is a certificate of disposal form. It was for Clermont County. It documented that they disposed of their signature books this summer, in July, further evidence that Judge Marbley’s ruling is being ignored. When I called Clermont, I was told they sent the signature books and poll books to the SOS office. When I looked at your inventory sheet for Clermont, it does not show signature books and poll books. Have you looked into this? As for those signature books and poll books for the 88 counties, they are an important part of the evidence of this enormous crime. They need inventoried and audited. They need gift wrapped with some of that yellow “crime scene” tape. Please, for the sake of this nation… due diligence. Just do your jobs.
I wrote you earlier about my concern at the same Voting Rights Institute meeting that Keith Cunningham, Director of the Allen County Board of Elections was appointed to a new board. The entry from your minutes of the meeting are below.
FROM THE VOTING RIGHTS INSTITUTE MEETING
Secretary Brunner announced her appointment of 3 people to the Board of Voting Examiners. This group determines the certification of voting machines in Ohio. The new members are: Keith Cunningham, from Allen County, David Moots, from Union County, and Inajo Davis Chappell, from Cuyahoga County.
I addressed and asked for a reply from both the Ohio Secretary of State, and the Ohio Attorney General’s offices about this. Keith Cunningham, Director of the Allen County Board of Elections who is one of many Ohio Election Officials that rigged a Green Party Recount of the 2004 Election. Again, here is the website for the report
HYPERLINK "http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/counties/allen.php"
Keith also disposed of 2004 election records. I asked that he immediately be removed from this board that will be responsible for certifying the Ohio voting machines. What he has done is a crime. He needs removed from his office and investigated. Instead it has the appearance he was rewarded (after discarding his 2004 ballots) with this new position. I asked for a response from your offices, for feedback on the appointment of Keith Cunningham to this new board. I continue to wait for a response on this matter… Why does no one at your office appear to care?
As for cost, in 2004 Allen County had 139 precincts. That is $1,390.00 that David Cobb, candidate for the United States President, paid for the recount. Keith Cunningham and any members of his board that were involved should personally refund that money. My research is showing rigged recounts across the state. Have the SOS office, or AG office investigated? Then to add additional insult to the many rigged recounts, the Ohio legislature in 3515.07 under “Charges for recounts” in 2006 raises the cost of future recounts up to being as much as $50.00 per precinct. This decision needs reversed, and an apology issued.
I’ve not yet studied Union County, another county for which a member is put on your new board to certify voting machines, but I did find this on the Green Party Recount site.
HYPERLINK "http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/counties/union.php"
This is the site for Union County, where the hard drive was switched out of the tabulator which counts the votes, between the election and the recount.
So did David Cobb and the Green and Libertarian Parties get a real recount? Union County had 46 precincts in 2004. That is $460.00 that was paid for the recount. Did the new machine give the same count? I am not comfortable with this. I have a witness that says this happened in about half our counties, the tabulators were altered between the election and the recount. Care to know more?
In the below clip from the Voting Rights Institute, it says that those of you at the VRI in the office of the SOS will do many good things. I hope you will work with the Ohio Election Justice Campaign, and get the issue of election crimes addressed.

IN CLOSING…
LETS SCHEDULE A MEETING AND START THE WORK!
In closing for this long letter. Please call me and lets schedule our meeting. I now have over 50 people interested in being here for this meeting. I will also send you the new guest list, including the bios for all participants and topics for the speakers. Kellye Pinkleton wrote that she had “space concerns”. Do not worry about that, we will provide a meeting location. Several locations have been looked at, and we are still looking, so that we have plenty of choices when we have a scheduled date. Kellye also wrote to me, and explained to Patricia Axelrod that Jennifer Brunner is too busy to meet, that only staff will be available. That will not be sufficient due to the importance of the topic. If that is still the answer, please provide The Ohio Election Justice Campaign with the schedule of Jennifer Brunner so we can see what she is working on that is so much more important than the theft of the US Presidential office, and the Ohio Supreme Court. I know Jennifer has a fundraiser coming up in Licking County this month. I received an invitation. Maybe something like that could be rescheduled. We are open to days, evening, or even weekends. Fridays are good for most people. We want to work with you. We want justice in Ohio, we were robbed, and thus, the nation was robbed. We must succeed in seeking justice in Ohio.
Sincerely Concerned,
The Ohio Election Justice Campaign

Dear Jennifer Brunner, Marc Dann, and Staff,
I am Paddy Shaffer, an Ohio Resident, Artist, Wife, Mother, Election Activist and Investigator, and I write today on behalf of The Ohio Election Justice Campaign. The OEJC started as a simple request for an opportunity to meet with you. This effort has now grown to a national campaign for legal accountability for election crimes in Ohio. The Ohio Election Justice Campaign wants to hear back from your two offices on a date for which we can schedule the three-hour meeting with Jennifer Brunner and Marc Dann. The purpose of the meeting would be to resolve how your offices will investigate the crimes of the 2004 election, as well, those crimes that have happened since need to be addressed. We wish for the Rule of Law to be restored through legal prosecutions. We also ask that your offices provide the public a way to follow your progress in resolving long-standing problems regarding our elections in Ohio. We have planned for a number of speakers from The Ohio Election Justice Campaign in the first hour of this meeting. Hours two and three are for you, Jennifer Brunner, Marc Dann, and your office staff to explain how we can accomplish our mutual goals in restoring the Rule of the Law in Ohio's elections. Finally, within those last two hours, we would also like to have dialog with you on this crucial subject as to how we can proceed together restoring the Rule of Law. We want a way for the public to follow the progress of the investigation and prosecution.
I, along with millions of other voters, listened to the campaign promises of candidates Marc Dann and Jennifer Brunner running for the critical offices of Ohio Attorney General and Ohio Secretary of State. Do you remember them? We were all so hopeful. We were hoping our election problems in Ohio would be resolved. I am enclosing a link that will take you to video of your campaign promises. At this moment, Marc Dann’s portion of the video is available. Soon it will have five parts, including Jennifer Brunner’s campaign promises as well.
What you promise is what we need. Please, just do what you promised!
Dann and Brunner Campaign Promises Video - HYPERLINK "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RygV2aiszQU"
NOT HERE TO FIGHT, ___JUST WANT THE JOB DONE.
I have done everything a citizen can do to help her country… I have personally investigated election crimes, when no law enforcement did the job. I have tried through the former Attorney General Jim Petro and County Prosecutors to get our election laws and public record laws enforced. I have paid for records requests, hundreds of dollars of them, paid my expenses, gasoline, long distance phone calls, and more to investigate these crimes, when no law enforcement would do their job. I pay for this with my grocery money. I have participated in radio call shows, and press conferences, and supplied the media with crime information, for which they generally ignore. I have endured name calling by the media and others, but also the love, appreciation and support of real patriots from across this country, and from other countries who care about democracy. I have made many friends, and probably a few enemies on this journey. I hope we will end up friends because what I want is reasonable.
I want to help you both do the best you can in your current jobs. I keep trying; keep sending you information that should be a great help to your job. I don’t do it to seeking credit. I just want to see you do the work, and you get the credit. I am very frustrated now, you have occupied your office for nine months, and it is almost 2008, another Presidential Election Year… and not much has been resolved. Even the two Cuyahoga County BOE workers, Jacqueline Maiden and Kathleen Dreamer and are getting a new trial, one wonders, will they go to prison for 18 months, or walk away?

HYPERLINK "http://www.blogforohio.com/index.php?itemid=99" Decision In Registration Case Is a Victory for The Constitution and the State (part of the blogged article below)
At least Ken’s consistent—consistently committed to eroding our democracy.
And there’s one more thing for which we should be thankful: Republican arrogance. They were so sure that they would control every statewide office, including that of attorney general, for another four years that when they passed House Bill 3 they gave the AG the authority to independently investigate and prosecute election law violations for the first time in Ohio history.
They did it because they thought a GOP AG as opposed to voting rights as they are would be a real asset during the 2008 presidential election. Imagine, I’m sure they said, how much easier it will be to keep people we don’t like away from the polls if someone on our side has the power to investigate and prosecute them for having the unmitigated gall to try and vote.
Now imagine how they feel today: Ohioans are on the verge of electing me attorney general. And instead of using the power of the office to keep people away from the polls, I’ll use it to enforce the Voting Rights Act, oppose anti-democratic legislation like HB 3, and ensure that every Ohioan who is eligible and desires to has the opportunity to vote and that every vote cast counts.
That’s not what the Republicans want, but it is what the U.S. and the Ohio Constitution demands. I would like to thank Judge O’Malley for upholding both. And I look forward to the day I take office as Attorney General so I can do the same.

HYPERLINK "http://www.blogforohio.com/index.php?itemid=107" Dann calls on Bureau of Workers’ Compensation to release internal audit that shows political favors helped reduce some employer’s rates (post in part)
“Once again, the public records law in Ohio is being ignored,” said Senator Dann. “The allegations of impropriety in the BWC are serious and deserve a closer look. By not releasing the audit, it begins to appear as just another cover-up. I have asked Director Mabe to reconsider his decision and release the audit to me by Friday.”

Due to glitches, erroneous information, and accidents, some counties had only partial records. Every county sent an inventory and a letter of explanation to Columbus with the ballots. A major concern was unused ballots. Many of these were destroyed, while voted ballots were kept. This information was all turned over to Judge Marbley. We have had no updates from his court as of today. Secretary Brunner highlighted the importance of her office focusing on the 2008 election.
I question how the word “glitches” can be used to describe any method for which the physical evidence of the theft of the office of the United States President was destroyed or discarded. I have documented 11 times when they knew to keep these records.
Are you aware that to destroy these records after 30 days, which some counties claim to have done… would be on January 1, 2005? The Boxer Rebellion and the date the election was certified were on January 6, 2006. So how can it be OK with Jennifer for them to have already destroyed records? How many of them did this? Will they do it again?
I also must question at this time if Jennifer Brunner has made herself familiar with the Board of Elections records on the missing 2004 records. She has spoken on them, and been quoted in the press saying they did not “intentionally destroy” ballots. The problem with that comment is that in their letters both Warren and Fayette Counties said they “intentionally destroyed” ballots. I have this from your records. This seems like you either do not know what is in the records held by the Secretary of State’s office, or you are misinforming the media and the public
In the above writing from the recent meeting of the Voting Rights Institute it appears from the minutes of the meeting that Jennifer told the participants that, “Every county sent an inventory and a letter of explanation to Columbus with the ballots.” I am familiar with your records. As soon as I read that I knew there seemed to be a problem. First, counties that turned over all their records did not need to submit a letter of explanation, but this is trivial. The bigger item is not. I wrote a record request to your office, requesting the letters of explanation for Columbiana, Coshocton, Darke, Lawrence, Licking, Lorain, Madison, Miami, Morgan, Noble, Summit, Tuscarawas, Wayne, Wood, and Wyandot Counties. This is 15 counties. See, you could only have letters for those counties, if those letters had recently arrived, because I already have all of the others.
According to SOS Elections Council, Brian Green, in a letter dated August 29, 2007,
“Those records you seek do not exist. As such, this office cannot provide them to you. If you have additional concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office.”
Well, I’m contacting you, and I have a concern. So again, either you do not know your offices records, or when you explained to the VRI group that you had all the letters of explanation for all 56 counties, which would give the appearance that you were content with the explanations given for all 56 counties that are missing some or all of their 2004 ballots. So how can you say none of the boards did anything wrong, to the VRI group, and to the media… when you do not have letters from 15 of the counties, and many of the letters you do have are, well frankly, absurd. The bottom line for myself and for many others across this nation is, those are the people’s records, evidence of a major crime against the US and its people. Lots of it was intentionally destroyed. The paper of Richard Hayes Phillips called “Shreds of Evidence” available at HYPERLINK "http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2709" http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2709 , which has previously been given to both the Attorney Generals office and to the Secretary of States office will help you to understand what has happened. They need investigated.
As for the remaining records, after the ongoing court case has finished, for which Judge Marbley ordered those records protected and given to the SOS office, one of your staff told me that those 2004 election records would probably be destroyed. Jennifer, again I remind you, and Marc Dann, the evidence of the theft of the United States Presidential Election and evidence of the theft of the Ohio Supreme Court is in those records. Those are the people’s records. They need sorted into 88 counties, or actually 81 counties, because 7 counties turned over no records. I know that they are not sorted now, but all mixed up. The signature books and poll books need collected from the BOE’s, as I have repeatedly suggested to you. I gave to Jennifer Brunner on August 6th, in person via Bobbie Gilbert an RC-3 form, which is a certificate of disposal form. It was for Clermont County. It documented that they disposed of their signature books this summer, in July, further evidence that Judge Marbley’s ruling is being ignored. When I called Clermont, I was told they sent the signature books and poll books to the SOS office. When I looked at your inventory sheet for Clermont, it does not show signature books and poll books. Have you looked into this? As for those signature books and poll books for the 88 counties, they are an important part of the evidence of this enormous crime. They need inventoried and audited. They need gift wrapped with some of that yellow “crime scene” tape. Please, for the sake of this nation… due diligence. Just do your jobs.
I wrote you earlier about my concern at the same Voting Rights Institute meeting that Keith Cunningham, Director of the Allen County Board of Elections was appointed to a new board. The entry from your minutes of the meeting are below.
FROM THE VOTING RIGHTS INSTITUTE MEETING
Secretary Brunner announced her appointment of 3 people to the Board of Voting Examiners. This group determines the certification of voting machines in Ohio. The new members are: Keith Cunningham, from Allen County, David Moots, from Union County, and Inajo Davis Chappell, from Cuyahoga County.
I addressed and asked for a reply from both the Ohio Secretary of State, and the Ohio Attorney General’s offices about this. Keith Cunningham, Director of the Allen County Board of Elections who is one of many Ohio Election Officials that rigged a Green Party Recount of the 2004 Election. Again, here is the website for the report
HYPERLINK "http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/counties/allen.php"
Keith also disposed of 2004 election records. I asked that he immediately be removed from this board that will be responsible for certifying the Ohio voting machines. What he has done is a crime. He needs removed from his office and investigated. Instead it has the appearance he was rewarded (after discarding his 2004 ballots) with this new position. I asked for a response from your offices, for feedback on the appointment of Keith Cunningham to this new board. I continue to wait for a response on this matter… Why does no one at your office appear to care?
As for cost, in 2004 Allen County had 139 precincts. That is $1,390.00 that David Cobb, candidate for the United States President, paid for the recount. Keith Cunningham and any members of his board that were involved should personally refund that money. My research is showing rigged recounts across the state. Have the SOS office, or AG office investigated? Then to add additional insult to the many rigged recounts, the Ohio legislature in 3515.07 under “Charges for recounts” in 2006 raises the cost of future recounts up to being as much as $50.00 per precinct. This decision needs reversed, and an apology issued.
I’ve not yet studied Union County, another county for which a member is put on your new board to certify voting machines, but I did find this on the Green Party Recount site.
HYPERLINK "http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/counties/union.php"
This is the site for Union County, where the hard drive was switched out of the tabulator which counts the votes, between the election and the recount.
So did David Cobb and the Green and Libertarian Parties get a real recount? Union County had 46 precincts in 2004. That is $460.00 that was paid for the recount. Did the new machine give the same count? I am not comfortable with this. I have a witness that says this happened in about half our counties, the tabulators were altered between the election and the recount. Care to know more?
In the below clip from the Voting Rights Institute, it says that those of you at the VRI in the office of the SOS will do many good things. I hope you will work with the Ohio Election Justice Campaign, and get the issue of election crimes addressed.

IN CLOSING…
LETS SCHEDULE A MEETING AND START THE WORK!
In closing for this long letter. Please call me and lets schedule our meeting. I now have over 50 people interested in being here for this meeting. I will also send you the new guest list, including the bios for all participants and topics for the speakers. Kellye Pinkleton wrote that she had “space concerns”. Do not worry about that, we will provide a meeting location. Several locations have been looked at, and we are still looking, so that we have plenty of choices when we have a scheduled date. Kellye also wrote to me, and explained to Patricia Axelrod that Jennifer Brunner is too busy to meet, that only staff will be available. That will not be sufficient due to the importance of the topic. If that is still the answer, please provide The Ohio Election Justice Campaign with the schedule of Jennifer Brunner so we can see what she is working on that is so much more important than the theft of the US Presidential office, and the Ohio Supreme Court. I know Jennifer has a fundraiser coming up in Licking County this month. I received an invitation. Maybe something like that could be rescheduled. We are open to days, evening, or even weekends. Fridays are good for most people. We want to work with you. We want justice in Ohio, we were robbed, and thus, the nation was robbed. We must succeed in seeking justice in Ohio.
Sincerely Concerned,

You are invited to witness what might be the most important meeting in history.
This is in regards to the theft of the United States 2004 Presidential Election. This meeting has been requested, a date has not yet been chosen.
By Paddy Shaffer
Ohio Election Justice Campaign
I am in the midst of planning a meeting with Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, and Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann. I have requested a three hour meeting, for which I plan to bring with me a group of speakers to each speak briefly on a topic, and then as a group we will discuss with Brunner and Dann, what is going to get done to investigate and prosecute those involved in the massive amount of documented election fraud in Ohio with an majority focus on 2004 (but not limited too, as the problems continue). We are waiting for confirmation that they will agree to meet and a date. We do not have a date for you today for this requested meeting.
I am inviting interested individuals and groups to attend as observers, and to help show their support to our goals being met. The Secretary of State and Attorney Generals offices are stalling on scheduling this meeting. Any help you can provide is appreciated.
Currently Brunner and Dann are doing little on this, and we cannot go into a third potential stolen Presidential Election with no accountability on what has happened. I think they need some positive encouragement, this is something the citizens want done, and prior to 2008. That leaves only a couple months. Please voice your opinion. If not now, with 2008 in a few months, when? Once 2008 is here, we could likely hear things like, it will be too disruptive to upset and change the Boards of Elections now, and "just get over it". Sorry folks, we should never get over it, not now, not in fifty years. We were intentionally robbed... and the robbers are still there collecting paychecks to run our unverifiable elections, for which we are taxed to pay them. To add to this, we now have more voting machines in Ohio than is 2004.
We have massive amounts of documentation in Ohio, thanks to the many citizen investigators, or which I am one. We want justice for Ohio and the nation. I also have documentation that the Attorney Generals office will do nothing in regards to 2004 election fraud issues. They put it in a letter to me that they will not investigate. I posted it in the letter entitled "An Open Letter To Lloyd Early, Director Of Special Investigations". 56 of Ohio's 88 Counties turned over partial or no ballots to the Secretary of State, which US District Court Judge ordered them to do, with the penalty of a fourth degree felony and a charge of contempt of court. Over one and a half federally protected ballots are gone. We have a massive number of counties with rigged recounts, and other crimes galore.
To understand some of the actual crimes committed, here is my research and what I am able to report on: http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2732
The documents from the Secretary of State relating to the destruction of over one and a half million Ohio 2004 ballots is at this website (it is a link halfway through the article): http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2730
To understand the significance of those ballots read "Shreds of Evidence" by Richard Hayes Phillips PhD at: http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2709
For an insiders look into how some of the Ohio BOE's view those of us who would dare to want to protect the 2004 ballots look at:
http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2743
Jennifer Brunner has been repeatedly quoted in the press saying things like they didn't intentionally destroy ballots, which Judge Algenon Marbley ordered protected. These Ohio Boards of Elections destroyed over 1.6 million ballots. Well actually they did destroy those ballots on purpose, Warren and Fayette Counties wrote that they "intentionally destroyed" them in their letters of explanation I have asked to know why this is Jennifer's response, asked her to revise it, and I have gotten no response.
To read a condensed list of excuses look at: http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2007/2731
Here in Ohio we had big, grand hopes that these new people were going to clean house and deal with these issues. Or were those just campaign promises?
I would like to speak to you about this, and include those of you in the meeting who would like to observe this important event in history, and to teach others about it. If you are interested, contact me. I'll have lots of documentation on my investigations up on this website soon. www.wakeupandsaveyourcountry.com This is the site for Ohio native Sheri Myers, for her book "Cheated!". I donated a copy of "Cheated!" to Jennifer Brunner and to Doug Miller recently. Doug is the Manager of Security at the SOS office. He read the book in the room with Richard and I while we photographed the Clermont County stickered ballots. Doug said that many people had asked him about the history of how 2004 unfolded after the election. He seemed pleased to have the story in print, yet looked troubled by what he was reading. Doug did not know about "Sleepovers" (where the poll workers have the voting machines at their homes for several days) nor the 2004 Warren County Homeland Security Alert, Dr. Richard Hayes Phillips just learned that the Deputy Director knew was coming days in advance of the November 2, 2004 election. Something needs done about all this.
As you read those letters of explanation, remember... that for the counties that destroyed records in 60 days... that would be January 1, 2005. Those had a 22 month retention schedule. The Boxer Rebellion and the certification of the election were on January 6, 2005. This ought to make you mad! Again, read "Shreds of Evidence" to see why those records likely are now gone.
Below is my confirmed guest list of speakers and others that plan to attend. I hope all can make it, as the date is still unknown. I have provided the Ohio Secretary of State and the Ohio Attorney Generals Office with the bios for those persons for which I have received a bio, and the topics on which they will speak.

The Dog Ate My Homework Project
The Dog Ate My Homework Project
Bush and Cheney Stole Ohio Election
John Kerry and John Edwards sit silent?
Learn the County Election History and Help!
August 2007
With a minimum of 1,582,208 Ohio ballots lost or destroyed by Ohio's Boards of Elections in total disregard for the record retention schedule, and orders from US District Court Judge Algenon Marbley to protect them, it is time to ask the difficult questions about what has happened. Since no law enforcement agency has stepped in to investigate, the job continues to fall on the shoulders of Americans. Our work of taking a very detailed look into Ohio elections continues, with a focus on our STOLEN ELECTION OF 2004. A project has started as a result of the fury of Ohio Election Activist, Paddy Shaffer after reading the ridiculous "letters of explanation" provided to the Ohio Secretary of State, rather than providing her with the ballots, as ordered by the Judge.
The effort now started, is called "THE DOG ATE MY HOMEWORK PROJECT" (in reference to the lame excuses given), and this will be a version of "The People's Court", until or unless actual law enforcement folks, who have actual funding and resources, decide that stealing the Presidency of the United States warrants a look. They should be ashamed so far. Since stealing a loaf of bread could get a mother with hungry children harsh punishment, those of us paying attention in Ohio feel that stealing our election should matter, and matter a lot for every stinking hand that helped to pull it off. So it is now the time, and here is the chance for the American people to be the Judge, the Jury, the Court Reporter, the Prosecutor, and the Investigators. It is easy to do. Contact us with idea's for questions to be asked of the Boards of Elections. Report what you find back to us.
We want to provide some helpful hints on how to study any Ohio County that you are interested in, so you know some of its election history that might pertain to the research you collect for The Dog Ate My Homework Project. With this we seek to find out the truth about what has happened to Ohio’s missing 2004 election records. 56 of Ohio’s 88 counties are missing some or all of their 2004 election records. The excuses in the "county letters of explanation" only beg to have more questions asked. Fifteen offending counties did not even provide an excuse to the Secretary of State. There are forms all the Boards of Elections must fill out to dispose of or destroy records, in most of the counties we have now researched, the Board of Elections have not filed a single form in the last 15 years, or longer. Here are the counties, with no letter of explanation, and what they admit to be missing...
That includes
Columbiana, (unvoted ballots)
Coshocton, (unvoted ballots)
Darke, (unvoted & soiled ballots) (a soiled ballot is one that the voter ruined, and asked for a new one)
Lawrence, (unvoted, provisional, & soiled ballots)
Licking, (unvoted & soiled ballots)
Lorain, (unvoted ballots & ballot pages)
Madison, (unvoted ballots)
Miami, (soiled ballots)
Morgan, (unvoted ballots)
Noble, (unvoted ballots)
Summit, (unvoted ballots & ballot pages)
Tuscarawas, (unvoted ballots)
Wayne, (unvoted ballots)
Wood, (unvoted ballots)
Wyandot (soiled ballots & ballot pages)
Imagine being the detective to find out why?
We the people must ask them why, what happened, under what authority do you do these things. Since no one in an official capacity seems to be asking, “We The People” will step in and find out what happened to our ballots, our “Public Records”. Judge Algenon Marbley ordered these records to be safely maintained, and for the ballots to be turned over to the Ohio Secretary of State. Again I say, at a minimum, 1,582,208 (according to Dr. Richard Hayes Phillips)
ballots are now forever missing, which in this case are 1,582,208 pieces of evidence are gone.
This should matter to all Americans, regardless of party. This is just wrong! Is this 1,582,208 fourth degree felony charges? The Judge, in his September 11, 2006 ruling said it was a fourth degree felony, and he would hold those that did not abide by his ruling in contempt of court.
John Kerry and John Edwards need questioned too. What happened, why do they still sit silent. Did they read the books provided to them by Paddy Shaffer and Mark Brown with the evidence of the theft of the Ohio Election. If they didn't read them, why not? What could they do that would be more important? What does Al Gore think about it all?
If 2000, and 2004 were both stolen, how can these men sit silently and leave the gate open for election theft to visit our doors again? What the hell is happening here? If you talk to, or can call these men, provide us with the questions you posed to Kerry, and Edwards, and tell us their responses. It will be utilized in telling Ohio's story. Either they are part of the problem, or part of the solution, this is not something we can "GET OVER", nor should we.
The site for the Green Party’s 2004 Ohio Presidential Election Recount is http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/
At this site you can go in and look at how the recount went in any county in Ohio. As you study the individual counties for your own research, or to assist with The Dog Ate My Homework Project, all the pieces of information weave the story together. Remember, they fought the recount. Delaware County set legal precedent by going to court to block the recount. As long as Delaware didn't recount, none of the other counties had to, until Judge Edmund Sargus ordered them to.
The Free Press has made available documents obtained by public record requests from the Ohio Secretary of State (SOS), Jennifer Brunner. This includes the inventory lists, letters of explanation (for not turning over records to the SOS), photos from some of the counties to explain why they didn’t send records, and more. That site is, (http://freepress.org/ballot/BOE.pdf)
As more important documents are gathered, they will be made available for viewing.
Please send Jason and Paddy your email address, and a phone number where we can reach you if you are willing to help. Send your answers to the project email ohballots@... , and also to Paddy Shaffer ohballots@gmail.com at
(614) 761-0621 and to Jason Parry at ohballots@gmail.com Send it to all three addresses. Jason will be putting data in spreadsheets and doing other things to make the data as useful as possible. If you learn anything really unusual or legally important, that you want to share, please call Paddy and share the story verbally also.
If you are able to make only one or a couple phone calls to one or two Ohio Boards of Elections, your assistance will help to make a difference. Please actually do something to address what happened in Ohio. This election fraud is of a cancerous sort, and it is spreading.
Thanks for your assistance,

The effort now started, is called "THE DOG ATE MY HOMEWORK PROJECT" (in reference to the lame excuses given), and this will be a version of "The People's Court", until or unless actual law enforcement folks, who have actual funding and resources, decide that stealing the Presidency of the United States warrants a look. They should be ashamed so far. Since stealing a loaf of bread could get a mother with hungry children harsh punishment, those of us paying attention in Ohio feel that stealing our election should matter, and matter a lot for every stinking hand that helped to pull it off. So it is now the time, and here is the chance for the American people to be the Judge, the Jury, the Court Reporter, the Prosecutor, and the Investigators. It is easy to do. Contact us with idea's for questions to be asked of the Boards of Elections. Report what you find back to us.
We want to provide some helpful hints on how to study any Ohio County that you are interested in, so you know some of its election history that might pertain to the research you collect for The Dog Ate My Homework Project. With this we seek to find out the truth about what has happened to Ohio’s missing 2004 election records. 56 of Ohio’s 88 counties are missing some or all of their 2004 election records. The excuses in the "county letters of explanation" only beg to have more questions asked. Fifteen offending counties did not even provide an excuse to the Secretary of State. There are forms all the Boards of Elections must fill out to dispose of or destroy records, in most of the counties we have now researched, the Board of Elections have not filed a single form in the last 15 years, or longer. Here are the counties, with no letter of explanation, and what they admit to be missing...
That includes
Columbiana, (unvoted ballots)
Coshocton, (unvoted ballots)
Darke, (unvoted & soiled ballots) (a soiled ballot is one that the voter ruined, and asked for a new one)
Lawrence, (unvoted, provisional, & soiled ballots)
Licking, (unvoted & soiled ballots)
Lorain, (unvoted ballots & ballot pages)
Madison, (unvoted ballots)
Miami, (soiled ballots)
Morgan, (unvoted ballots)
Noble, (unvoted ballots)
Summit, (unvoted ballots & ballot pages)
Tuscarawas, (unvoted ballots)
Wayne, (unvoted ballots)
Wood, (unvoted ballots)
Wyandot (soiled ballots & ballot pages)
Imagine being the detective to find out why?
We the people must ask them why, what happened, under what authority do you do these things. Since no one in an official capacity seems to be asking, “We The People” will step in and find out what happened to our ballots, our “Public Records”. Judge Algenon Marbley ordered these records to be safely maintained, and for the ballots to be turned over to the Ohio Secretary of State. Again I say, at a minimum, 1,582,208 (according to Dr. Richard Hayes Phillips)
ballots are now forever missing, which in this case are 1,582,208 pieces of evidence are gone.
This should matter to all Americans, regardless of party. This is just wrong! Is this 1,582,208 fourth degree felony charges? The Judge, in his September 11, 2006 ruling said it was a fourth degree felony, and he would hold those that did not abide by his ruling in contempt of court.
John Kerry and John Edwards need questioned too. What happened, why do they still sit silent. Did they read the books provided to them by Paddy Shaffer and Mark Brown with the evidence of the theft of the Ohio Election. If they didn't read them, why not? What could they do that would be more important? What does Al Gore think about it all?
If 2000, and 2004 were both stolen, how can these men sit silently and leave the gate open for election theft to visit our doors again? What the hell is happening here? If you talk to, or can call these men, provide us with the questions you posed to Kerry, and Edwards, and tell us their responses. It will be utilized in telling Ohio's story. Either they are part of the problem, or part of the solution, this is not something we can "GET OVER", nor should we.
The site for the Green Party’s 2004 Ohio Presidential Election Recount is http://www.iwantmyvote.com/recount/ohio_reports/
At this site you can go in and look at how the recount went in any county in Ohio. As you study the individual counties for your own research, or to assist with The Dog Ate My Homework Project, all the pieces of information weave the story together. Remember, they fought the recount. Delaware County set legal precedent by going to court to block the recount. As long as Delaware didn't recount, none of the other counties had to, until Judge Edmund Sargus ordered them to.
The Free Press has made available documents obtained by public record requests from the Ohio Secretary of State (SOS), Jennifer Brunner. This includes the inventory lists, letters of explanation (for not turning over records to the SOS), photos from some of the counties to explain why they didn’t send records, and more. That site is, (http://freepress.org/ballot/BOE.pdf)
As more important documents are gathered, they will be made available for viewing.
Please send Jason and Paddy your email address, and a phone number where we can reach you if you are willing to help. Send your answers to the project email ohballots@... , and also to Paddy Shaffer ohballots@gmail.com at
(614) 761-0621 and to Jason Parry at ohballots@gmail.com Send it to all three addresses. Jason will be putting data in spreadsheets and doing other things to make the data as useful as possible. If you learn anything really unusual or legally important, that you want to share, please call Paddy and share the story verbally also.
If you are able to make only one or a couple phone calls to one or two Ohio Boards of Elections, your assistance will help to make a difference. Please actually do something to address what happened in Ohio. This election fraud is of a cancerous sort, and it is spreading.
Thanks for your assistance,
Paddy Shaffer
