Diebold caught in flagrante!!

Being on the send lists of several election reform orgs, I expect to see email dribble in from them from time to time.  

Imagine my shock this afternoon when, upon checking my mail, I saw no less than 8 emails from different outfits informing me of the latest twist in the fight against paperless voting in America.

Curious?

Follow me.

I'm not going to waste your time detailing the sordid saga.  This news video gets to the heart of the matter and tells the story much more eloquently and  poignantly than I ever could.

Go there and give them some traffic to reward them for this great report.  God knows the media landscape is bleak and when we find an oasis of real journalism, we should pass out some mojo, at the very least.

The only question that remains is: "Can the Republic survive without Republican corporations running our voting systems?"

•  You left out...

  I like to be touched by electro-mechanical things.  Obviously, I can't vote.

•  Okay, you got two clicks out of me.

  You should warn people up front that it's snark. Well done, but for the many here who don't have the time or inclination to go to joke sites, this was a waste of time.

        Oops.  I think I'll leave it so people will assume it's some double entender.
