Was the 2004 election stolen? No.

In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn't new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions.

    Lone Nuts

    Farhad Manjoo admits that the system is broken , and that partisan employement of election rules and procedures in Ohio did occur (Diebold voting machines made by Republican supporters that are easily manipulated and leave no paper trail), but he nevertheless concludes that the results in Ohio (and other states) were accurate enough to declare George Bush the winner. Not only is Robert Kennedy Jr. correct, he is obviously correct. That the last two presidential elections have been stolen is apparent to everyone other than Americans. Farhad Manjoo and Salon are in denial.
