Greg Palast: Racial Bent in Vote Spoilage Is Intentional
SF Chronicle Article (in GuvWurld archive, links to original)
Greg Palast has been a leader in exposing the illegal disenfranchisement of Florida voters in the 2000 election since shortly after the stillborn birth of the Bush administration. Now he's back with evidence showing the racial bent of spoiled (i.e. disregarded) votes is both dramatic and intentional. As addressed in another recent Palast-inspired GuvWurld entry, this injustice has been codified for perpetuation in the Help America Vote Act (as Orwellian a name as "Clear Skies" or "Healthy Forest").
