from http://www.moveon.org/front/ :
Questions are swirling around whether the election was conducted honestly or not. We need to know — was it or wasn't it? If people were wrongly prevented from voting, or if legitimate votes were mis-counted or not counted at all, we need to know so the wrongdoers can be held accountable, and so we can prevent this from happening again.
Members of Congress are demanding an investigation to answer this question. The decision on whether or not there will be an investigation could come as soon as Monday. Join us in supporting the call for one now.

So, if you want, sign the petition at that link.
On a side note: Provisional ballot counting is starting in Ohio either this weekend or next week.

Sure. You can have Wisc. We'll take Ohio. And maybe Florida.

"Members of Congress are demanding an investigation to answer this question."
Does anyone know which members?
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

jrb, being generous, i'll sport you 160,000 provisional ballots in ohio. the real number is closer to 155,000. now assuming that there's 160,000 and that all of them, every single one of them is legit (last time the number was around 90%) kerry would need to win 93% of them to win. if the number of ballots that end up being legitimate goes down, the percentage kerry needs to win goes up. in his best county in ohio kerry pulled 66%. are ya liking those numbers? remember, the large turnout was going to favor kerry too.
i admire your passion in the face of overwhelming odds.

well. There are the provisional ballots. Have all the absentee been counted yet?
How about discarded votes (machine error, etc.)?

Posted: 11/13/04 at 4:23pmOh--and all the votes that were accidently given to Bush? They keep finding those.

i have a feeling that the votes that you require to change the outcome will unfortunately be like iraq's wmds, jrb, they may be out there, but no one really knows where for sure.
absetee ballots will almost undoubtedly favor bush as they'll include the military vote which according to the last poll taken before the election was running about 70%-30% in favor of gw. wow, we could actually improve our lead!
sweeeeeeet.
