Of potential interest...

...for the next few days, anyway: Just created a syndicated account for [livejournal.com profile] votefraud04rss, which gives you the feed for www.votefraud04.com, "The weblog that wants to disappear." The site is an offshoot of World magazine, a Christian conservative mag, but the blog itself may be of interest to people anywhere in the US political spectrum who are concerned about possible election fraud.

And now I need to go away and deal with bureaucracy again. Oh joy. I wish it were Halloween already--then I would have an excuse to go to their offices and say "Trick or treat!"

hmmm, some of the day's titles got my liberal back up. but i'm glad they're worried about voter fraud.

hope they give you the bureaucratic equivalent of many mini-butterfinger bars!

oh, i am SO off the beam, grammatically. :heavy sigh:

"some of the days' titles," that is. :(

Yep, I wasn't about to mention the blog without pointing out their biases. :-) And man, they sure do update that feed a lot. Which is a good thing in a way, but means I'll probably be reading my filtered versions of the flist more often.

oh, and I didn't get any candy. I'm just hoping I'll be able to continue getting the state benefits I'm eligible for.

Paid members can create a syndicated account by going to http://www.livejournal.com/syn
going to the bottom of the page where it says
"Add a feed to your friends list by entering the feed URL below."
and adding the URL of a syndicated feed. If the feed does not already have an LJ account, you'll be prompted for a name for the new account.

That's the easy part. The hard part is finding the URLs of interesting feeds you can create accounts for.

Thanks for the links. I found this in the New York Times article,

Then there's the fiasco-waiting-to-happen in Colorado — a ballot initiative that would turn the state from a winner-take-all to a proportional split of electoral college votes.

I've never read, in depth, how the electoral college was set up, but this sounds very interesting.

Don't thank me for the links--I just linked to the blog that has all the links. They do all the work!
