| Michael Moore to monitor Florida vote |
| 2004-07-29 |
| Filmmaker proclaims: 'They will not get away with it this time' It's not known if he'll call his next movie "Florida 9/11," but filmmaker Michael Moore is vowing to be an election monitor in the Sunshine State this November. "I am coming to Florida," the director of "Fahrenheit 9/11" promised Florida's delegation to the Democratic National Convention in Boston. "Together we will guarantee to every Floridian that their vote will be counted this year. I will have my cameras. We will put a huge spotlight on them. They will not get away with it this time." The director claims the 2000 vote count was tainted despite numerous recounts in Democrat-supervised counties which gave Bush a 537-vote victory, providing him with the needed electoral votes to win the presidency over Al Gore, who won the national popular vote. "Too many people fought for too many years to guarantee that every American citizen would have the right to vote and that their votes would be counted," Moore said. "Too many people died for that right, and we are not going to dishonor those who gave their lives in civil rights struggles by allowing these people to steal a second election." |
