So in 2000, the BBC got together with Greg Pallast in a joint investigation into voter fraud at the US elections, th result was a series of newsnight reports and a book, the best democracy money can buy’. All good there, the bbc does its job well. They uncover mass fraud in florida and the use of electronic voting machines in this fraud.
Fast forward 8 years, Us primaries, massive reports of voter fraud, in nearly every primary, nearly every primary vote being contested at one level or another, and we have Bev Harris, an investigative journalist who specialises in voter fraud, uncovering incredible evidence. she followed the votes as they were driven from the polling station and into a midnight meeting in the middle of thdesert with a bunch of guys in a truck. She found resealable ballot boxes. She has the evidence to sink this issue.
A quick check of the BBC website, dont see anything there, maybe Justin Webb will bring it up on his blog, nope.
So in 8 short years we have gone from the BBC funding investigations in voter fraud to the BBC doing its very best to make sure this election is about Obama and Hilary and nothing else.
