Republican (fascist/socialist) secretary of state William L. Jones, of the republic of california, orders the web site www.voteswap2000.com shut down for “illegal vote buying.”  The operators of the site sought to increase the nation-wide vote total for Ralph Nader, presidential candidate of the alternative Green (environmentalist) Party, by signing up voters in “safe” states (those solidly in the camp of either status quo (Democratic-Republican) candidate) to swap their votes with voters in “battle-ground” states (those in which the contest between the two status quo party candidates was close.  Those voters seeking both a victory for Democratic (socialist/fascist) de facto Vice President/de jure President Albert Gore, Jr., and a large showing for Nader would agree to vote for Nader in the safe states, and vote for Gore in the battle-ground states.  Jones saw this as a threat to california’s winner-take-all presidential election.

       NOTE: Vote swapping is what members of CONgress do on a regular basis, and is a primary reason why the Federal budget is filled mostly with unconstitutional spending.
