>Dear Editor: In the early morning of Nov. 3, John Edwards stated 
>that he and John Kerry would work to make sure every vote was 
>counted. I voted for Kerry, and I believed Edwards; however, when 
>Kerry conceded only hours later, I was left with an empty feeling.
>
>It was not the loss of the election nearly so much as the lack of 
>drive in the candidates to assure us that we had a fair election.
>
>As reports poured in after (and many before) the election alleging 
>voting irregularities and fraud, the Democrats - save an extreme 
>congressional minority - did nothing.
>
>Now leading the charge in investigating the vote in Ohio and New 
>Mexico are David Cobb and the Green Party. I feel that the Dems 
>perhaps think that they cannot win this one, so they won't try (they 
>did intervene legally on Cobb's behalf later on). That attitude will 
>lead to another fraudulent election and most of all a failed 
>democratic process.
>
>Perhaps the Democrats should worry not about what battles they can 
>win, but which ones deserve a fight. Maybe that would make their 
>message clearer to Americans that they are the party for the people 
>and not for the corporations.
>
>This voter will be turning away from the Dems and toward the Greens, 
>who I believe are truly fighting for my interests and the interests 
>of my country.
