Just before the election recess, I contacted Rep. Pelosi's office to inquire about paper ballots and voter validation. I voiced my dismay at possible Diebold shenanigans on November 7th. What are the plans to insure paper ballots?(I already knew the answer) A very polite aide intoned that a bill to insure paper balloting was in the works and to be introduced before the recess. I gasped and noted that it would never get to the floor and the Republicans would squash it. And thats what happened. Any other ideas?
I don't get it. Are there any contingencies to protect the vote? I have been reading so much of super-hero Mark Foley and the plummetting polls for Rethugs and of a possible grand take down of Congress by the better angles of our nature, that I'm not reading or seeing anything pertaining to voter fraud. Are we praying too much? There is an ugly 4 faced gorilla in the closet and he may be coming out on election day.
Those of you with superior information on this subject, please let us know what is going on. I am getting nightmares of contested decisions from all 4 corners of the Union after election day. Will a true wipeout be tamed by some strategically placed electronic voter machine?
