[The David Pakman Show graphic]

2
00:00:00,455 --> 00:00:01,901
[Pakman begins speaking before he appears on screen] Here's some interesting information.

3
00:00:01,901 --> 00:00:03,848
We talked earlier in the week.

4
00:00:03,848 --> 00:00:06,077
- maybe it was last week, I'm losing
track of time -

5
00:00:06,108 --> 00:00:10,191
of voter fraud - voter suppression -
confirmed on the behalf of the Republican

6
00:00:10,191 --> 00:00:13,364
Party and we talked about the fired
voter registration company. Now we have

7
00:00:13,364 --> 00:00:18,433
uh... a lot of Bain alumni that are
raising big money as Mitt Romney

8
00:00:18,433 --> 00:00:20,144
bundlers

9
00:00:20,144 --> 00:00:22,541
and they are also involved

10
00:00:22,541 --> 00:00:25,348
in the electronic voting machine
business. This is pretty interesting

11
00:00:25,348 --> 00:00:27,184
stuff. This is kind of a repeat of that
infamous

12
00:00:27,184 --> 00:00:32,185
CEO of Diebold, Wally O'Dell, who raised
money for Bush while his company

13
00:00:32,185 --> 00:00:36,101
supplied the voting machines for 2004 election.

14
00:00:36,101 --> 00:00:38,042
We're seeing almost the exact same thing,
Lewis.

15
00:00:38,042 --> 00:00:39,190
[Lewis] Okay, continue.

16
00:00:39,190 --> 00:00:40,483
[Pakman] No, I mean, that's it. 


17
00:00:40,483 --> 00:00:41,555
[Lewis] That's it? Alright, well yeah, no surprise.


18
00:00:41,555 --> 00:00:44,600
[Pakman] So I'll tell the story.

19
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,184
In 234 counties of Texas,

20
00:00:47,184 --> 00:00:49,763
the entire state of Hawaii,

21
00:00:49,763 --> 00:00:51,593
the entire state of Oklahoma,

22
00:00:51,593 --> 00:00:56,931
half of Washington, Colorado, counties in
swing state Ohio - votes are going to be

23
00:00:56,931 --> 00:01:01,684
cast on these E-Slate and E-Pollbook machines. Now who makes those machines?

24
00:01:01,684 --> 00:01:05,573
A company called Hart Intercivic.

25
00:01:05,573 --> 00:01:10,145
Hart Intercivic machines famously tainted
in Tarrant County, which is Fort Worth,

26
00:01:10,145 --> 00:01:15,967
adding ten thousand non-existent votes.
The Everett study, which was commissioned by

27
00:01:15,967 --> 00:01:20,009
the Ohio secretary of state back in 2007 found that there were a

28
00:01:20,009 --> 00:01:23,680
number of security flaws with the Hart Intercivic products. No surprise - we hear

29
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,140
all the time of these flaws.

30
00:01:25,155 --> 00:01:26,349
[Lewis] Right.

31
00:01:26,349 --> 00:01:27,968
[Pakman] An ongoing free press investigation turned

32
00:01:27,968 --> 00:01:32,926
the attention to who owns the voting
machine companies. You know what's coming,

33
00:01:32,926 --> 00:01:34,071
Lewis, we all know what's coming.

34
00:01:34,071 --> 00:01:34,863
[Lewis] Here it comes. .

35
00:01:34,863 --> 00:01:37,678
[Pakman] The majority of the directors of Hart Intercivic

36
00:01:37,678 --> 00:01:41,773
come from a private equity firm. The
private equity firm is called HIG Captial.

37
00:01:41,773 --> 00:01:45,322
Now HIG Capital has been
heavily invested in Hart since about

38
00:01:45,322 --> 00:01:50,310
July of 2011 - just in time for the
current presidential cycle.

39
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:51,602
So the question is what? Well,

40
00:01:51,602 --> 00:01:53,875
Who is HIG Capital?

41
00:01:53,875 --> 00:01:58,021
Out of 49 partners and directors of
HIG Capital,

42
00:01:58,021 --> 00:02:00,333
Forty-eight are men.

43
00:02:00,333 --> 00:02:01,844
Forty-seven are white.

44
00:02:01,844 --> 00:02:04,215
And eleven of these men, including the
founder,

45
00:02:04,215 --> 00:02:09,429
Tony Tamer, were at one point employed by none other than. . .[leading Lewis to guess answer]

46
00:02:09,429 --> 00:02:10,934
[Lewis] Mitt Romney?

47
00:02:10,934 --> 00:02:12,575
[Pakman] Bain Capital.

48
00:02:12,575 --> 00:02:13,544
[Lewis] Well, yeah.

49
00:02:13,544 --> 00:02:16,701
[Pakman] Bain and company, to be specific. Two of
those men John [Balduk - unintelligible] and Douglas

50
00:02:16,778 --> 00:02:21,715
Berman are Romney bundlers,along
with former Bain and HIG manager

51
00:02:21,715 --> 00:02:26,049
Brian Shortsleeve. These employees have
given $338,000

52
00:02:26,049 --> 00:02:28,882
to Mitt Romney's campaign. That's about fifteen hundred bucks per

53
00:02:28,882 --> 00:02:33,680
employee. Bain Capital, by comparison, only
gave Romney $268,.

54
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,475
HIG is the 11th largest donor to the Mitt Romney

55
00:02:36,475 --> 00:02:40,598
campaign and they are really working
hard for their man,

56
00:02:40,598 --> 00:02:44,525
also owning a lot of the voting machines that will be tallying the results.

57
00:02:44,525 --> 00:02:48,314
Ladies and gentlemen, the system is corrupt.

58
00:02:48,314 --> 00:02:53,242
[Lewis] I don't care what state it is or where
the machines came from,

59
00:02:53,242 --> 00:02:55,683
there should not be machines.

60
00:02:55,683 --> 00:02:57,370
[Pakman] You think
we just need paper ballots?

61
00:02:57,370 --> 00:02:58,643
[Lewis] Absolutely. You know why?

62
00:02:58,643 --> 00:03:03,849
because if people are going to falsify things,

63
00:03:03,849 --> 00:03:06,851
it's a lot harder to falsify 10,000

64
00:03:06,851 --> 00:03:09,428
hand-written ballots than it is

65
00:03:09,428 --> 00:03:10,479
[Pakman] It is.

66
00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:11,049
[Lewis] doing this on a keyboard.

67
00:03:11,049 --> 00:03:15,761
[Pakman] Yeah, but local news needs the results by
eleven p.m. eastern.

68
00:03:15,761 --> 00:03:19,546
[Lewis] Don't care, don't care.

69
00:03:19,546 --> 00:03:22,359
[Pakman] So ladies and gentlemen, that's what's going on. You to be aware of this - you need to be aware

70
00:03:22,359 --> 00:03:23,874
of all the voter suppression and
election fraud that's going on.

71
00:03:23,874 --> 00:03:25,000
