My coworker John Washburn is probably one of the most meticulous people I've met in a long time.  And even after more than two years of roadblocks trying to get information from the State regarding the 2004 election, he's still as passionate about it as ever.  He's finally gotten a hold of some of the records, and out of the first 100 wards he's looked at in Milwaukee County, he's discovered that they counted more than 1000 ballots than they gave out.  This is probably just the tip of the iceberg too.  At best, its shoddy record keeping.  At worst, it's evidence that the ballots boxes were stuffed illegally.  I've also seen some of the records and video he has, and its just shocking how little care the Milwaukee County election officials seem to take with one of our most basic rights.

I would be very afraid if John ever worked for the IRS.  Being the good Libertarian that he is though, there is no chance that would ever happen.  I'm glad he's on our side.
