Did Kerry Actually Win?

According to Tompaine.com writer Greg Palast, Kerry actually won the popular vote in Ohio, as well as New Mexico, after all.

Today, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports there are a total of 247,672 votes not counted in Ohio, if you add the 92,672 discarded votes plus the 155,000 provisional ballots. So far there's no indication that Palast's hypothesis will be tested because only the provisional ballots are being counted.

So, perversely, I actually feel better that there was fraud involved in this election (I cannot handle the notion that Bush won fairly). Not so for Palast, who says "I used to write a column for the Guardian papers in London. Several friends have asked me if I will again leave the country. In light of the failure—a second time—to count all the votes, that won't be necessary. My country has left me."
