I'd like to think there's a tiny bit of hope...
Subject: FW:The Low Down on Ohio
I received this from a guy in my Women's Studies Class
I just got off the phone with the office of the Ohio Secretary of
State and was told the following:
-Kerry's concession has no legal bearing on who wins the election.
-Ohio has been using and counting provisional ballots for the exact
same way for the past 10 elections.
-Ohio and Federal law dictate that the state will wait 10 days and
then begin counting the provisional ballots.
-All valid provisional ballots will be counted.
-The winner of the state of Ohio shall not be considered official
until such time as all provisional ballots have been counted.
-*If* Kerry is found to win Ohio, regardless of his public
concession, he will win the election.
The woman I spoke with asked that people post this information far
and wide becuase, for whatever reason, the media aren't reporting it.
-Matt
