ROVE, GOP EXPORT ELECTION FRAUD TO FOREIGN NATIONS

[Rove under investigation by Spain, Mexico----. Gee, I wonder why CNN isn't

airing this.....]

March 19, 2007 -- Democratic Party sources have reported to WMR that Karl

Rove and a team of Republican Party election manipulators he has used in the

past for tampering with U.S. elections, particularly in Florida, Ohio, and

New Mexico, are under investigation by the Italian government of Prime

Minister Romano Prodi and the opposition Democratic Revolution Party (PRD)

of Mexico.

The sources report that investigators are looking at alleged technical and

strategic advice given by Rove and GOP election tampering consultants to

Silvio Berlusconi's government, particularly the arch-neo-cons in the

Berlusconi Cabinet -- then Interior Minister Beppe Pisanu and Foreign

Minister Ginafranco Fini. Although polls before the April 2006 election

indicated that Prodi's Center-Left coalition was far ahead of Berlusconi's

right-wing/neo-fascist alliance and exit polls also indicated a large

Center-Left win, Prodi squeaked by with a mere 0.1 percent of the vote. Our

sources claim that Rove and his Italian counterparts severely miscalculated

in their planning for tampering with the Italian election returns. Rove and

his advisers forgot to include the expatriate Italian vote in their

calculations. The 2006 national elections were the first in which Italians

abroad were allowed to vote and by failing to calculate those votes,

Berlusconi lost by a hair, despite the vote counting fraud that reportedly

also included siphoning blank protest votes to the Berlusconi column.

Similarly, PRD officials are also looking at Rove and his team's involvement

in providing election tampering assistance to conservative National Action

Party (PAN) candidate Felipe Calderon in last July's Mexico presidential

election. Calderon beat PRD candidate Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador by a

razor-thin 0.6 percent. However, as with Italy, pre-election polls and exit

polls showed the PRD candidate with a commanding lead. Ballot boxes were

found in garbage dumps in pro-PRD precincts. In addition, votes for the PRD

were either shaved from the total count and some precincts were not even

counted.

Some of the financial support for Republican interference in the Italian and

Mexican elections may have been laundered through the U.S. taxpayer-funded

National Endowment for Democracy, which, in turn, funds the International

Republican Institute (IRI), an arm of the Republican Party. The IRI has been

involved in funding election campaigns in Venezuela against Hugo Chavez and

in Haiti against Jean-Bertrand Aristide.

Rove now under investigation for election fraud by Italian and Mexican

officials. Is an INTERPOL Red Notice for Rove in the offing?

Italian government and PRD officials have been in direct contact with

Democratic Party election experts concerning the suspected international

vote fraud committed by the GOP and Rove. If Rove is asked to testify in

Italy about his contacts with Berlusconi government officials and refuses,

he will have more than U.S. congressional subpoenas to worry about -- he

could be faced with an INTERPOL Red Notice, a international arrest warrant

recognized by INTERPOL member states.
