UC Berkeley Study Questions Florida E-Vote Count
Thursday November 18, 1:23 am ET
Research Team Calls for Immediate Investigation
BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ --
When: Thursday, November 18, 2004, 10:00 a.m. PST
Where: UC Berkeley campus, Survey Research Center Conference
Room --
2538 Channing Way (intersection of Channing/Bowditch). Parking
on Durant
near Telegraph.
What: A research team at UC Berkeley will report that
irregularities
associated with electronic voting machines may have awarded
130,000 - 260,000 or more excess votes to President George W.
Bush in
Florida in the 2004 presidential election. The study shows an
unexplained
discrepancy between votes for President Bush in counties where
electronic
voting machines were used versus counties using traditional
voting
methods. Discrepancies this large or larger rarely arise by
chance -- the
probability is less than 0.1 percent. The research team, led by
Professor
Michael Hout, will formally disclose results of the study at the
press
conference.
