FLORIDA'S 2004 VOTES STOLEN IN DARING THEFT
By Stockton
In a daring daylight heist, an unidentified man made off with Florida's 2004 Presidential election returns. Governor Jeb Bush is outraged.
"We worked long and hard on those returns," said the governor. "It took weeks to make them look genuine and now we'll have to start all over again." Governor Bush is calling a special meeting of the Republican State Committee to begin drafting new 2004 election returns.
"It's really a blow to the Republicans," said Judy Myers, a party spokeswoman. "President Bush had defeated Senator Kerry by 30,000 votes. We made sure it was a decent margin, but not unrealistic. Now it's back to the drawing board."
Based on eye-witnesses, State Police have created a computerized image of the possible perpetrator. The man is not a suspect but police have described him as a 'Person of Interest'.
