Azerbaijan Election Results Released Before Voting Had Even Started 266
Jah-Wren Ryel writes "Florida's hanging chads ain't going nothing on Azerbaijan. Fully a day before the polls were to open, election results were accidentally released via an official smartphone app, confirming what everybody already knew — the election was rigged from the beginning. The official story is that the app's developer had mistakenly sent out the 2008 election results as part of a test. But that's a bit flimsy, given that the released totals show the candidates from this week, not from 2008."

This is offensive to the Great Democracy of Azerbaijan. There is no corruption, this is lies spread by the Islamist Party who are trying to destroy this country. Slashdot should be ashame of itself for posting such vile filth.

This is what makes me proud to be an American, at least we know how to properly rig an election.

Further proof that we need the mod option "Prophetic".
