Emails sent to *@georgewbusg.org

October 26th, 2004 · No Comments

So apparently Cheney isn’t alone in his *.com / *.org / *.net confusion. GeorgeWBush.org, a satire site, has a “catch-all” on their mailserver that collects any emails addressed to anyone@georgebush.org. Fortunately, no one configured the mailserver to ignore such emails.The full emails, including attachments, are included in the link. Apparently, Greg Palast, of the BBC, had an article sourced from those emails, detailing a plan by Bush staffers to challenge voters in Florida that they felt were not legally allowed to vote, which they refer to as a “caging list.”

Two e-mails, prepared for the executive director of the Bush campaign in Florida
and the campaign’s national research director in Washington DC, contain a
15-page so-called “caging list”. It lists 1,886 names and addresses of voters in
predominantly black and traditionally Democrat areas of Jacksonville, Florida.
…”The only possible reason why they would keep such a thing is to challenge
voters on election day.”

Of course the Republicans deny this…
