Kerry Sends Fact-Finding Mission to Ohio

HeadlineNov 12, 2004

In election news, lawyers with John Kerry’s presidential campaign have begun a fact-finding mission in Ohio to ensure that all votes in the state are counted. Attorney Dan Hoffheimer, said they are not trying to challenge the election but are trying to identify any voting problems in the state. Unofficial polls show that Bush beat Kerry by about 136,000 votes in Ohio. But there have been numerous problems reported in the state. In one county, Bush initially received an extra 3,900 votes due to a voting machine mishap. Six Democratic members of Congress including Rep. John Conyers of Michigan have called for an investigation by the General Accounting Office.
