Michael Connell - the IT expert who helped rig Dubya's election in 2000 and 2004 dies in air crash piloting his light aircraft on flight from DC

Michael Connell, the Bush IT expert who has been directly implicated in the rigging of George Bush's 2000 and 2004 elections, was killed last night when the single engine Piper Supercub plane (one report says it is a Piper Saratoga ) he was piloting alone crashed just before 6 pm , three miles short of Runway 23 at the Akron - Canton Airport . A devout Roman Catholic with very strong views on abortion he leaves behind a wife and four children.

Connell, 45, was wearing a business suit. Apparently, according to Stark County Coroner Investigator Harry Campbell , Connell had breakfast in Washington D.C. Investigators found receipts in Connell’s wallet.

Connell was a figure in an ongoing controversy about alleged vote flipping in Ohio in the 2004 presidential election. In October, U.S. Judge Solomon Oliver of Ohio ordered Connell to testify in a lawsuit in connection with charges that electronic voting apparatus in some Ohio districts flipped votes to Bush from Democratic nominee John Kerry.

Cliff Arnebeck, the lead attorney for the plaintiffs in the suit, alleged in an e-mail to U.S. Attorney Michael Mukasey in July that Connell and his family had been threatened in connection with Connell's possible testimony.

Velvet Underground have a website that catalogues Michael Connell's role in the Bush 2004 campaigns tampering with recorded votes and Karl Rove's oversight of the plans and operations.

They said he needed protection and now call for Heather Connell who is the owner of GovTech Solutions, Randy Cole, the former President of GovTech Solutions, and Jeff Averbeck, the CEO of SmartTech Corp in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Both GovTech and SmartTech have been implicated in the rigging of the 2000 and 2004 elections and the White House email scandal. They pointout their prior request to have Mr. Connell protected went unheeded and now he is dead.
