> Wouldn't ... put a stop to some of this crap?
Sure, but the Democrats have no interest in honest democracy,
except where they are assured a win.
When it's close, they want to cheat.
When they lose by a hair, they want to litigate.
When they lose solidly, they sabotage the legislative
process, as in TX, where they evacuated the state in
order to prevent a quorum.
If they ever get majority control of this country again,
there will be no credible elections after that.
Booooooo!
This article may be left leaning and planting the seeds of discord in the election but does anyone doubt that voting and counting those votes with a computer cannot be rigged one way or the other?
I am sure there is fraud and cheating with the paper ballot but at least there is a record. With the way things are going we will soon turn over all our votes to a computer and I prefer a paper trail even if it takes two days to count.
These guys evidently know some computer experts that like to mess with their heads. I'd never dream of that, of course.
FemEcoNazi: "Mr. Drill, we hear that signals can travel between voting machines using simple electricity. Is this true?"
BtD: "Why yes, my dear. It's a well-known fact that all the 802.x protocols are heavily dependent on electric particles that travel through the wires at high pressures. If their flow is restricted by Republican ethernet waves they form little clumps called "packets." Now, you hear about "lost packets" all the time, but have you ever heard of anyone even trying to find them again? I thought not. And that's why Gore lost the election."
Yeah that's when I started laughing....AP pro-Bush? What kind of far-left rag is this place. And what drugs are they on?

The Heisenberg principle strikes again!
or perhaps with my observation it no longer has, er ... yes...ummm maybe ... no....hmmm
THE dEMOCRATS ARE SETTIMNG UP FOR A CHALLENGE BASED ON THE WELL KNOWN RABID RIGHT WING NATURE OF THE AP.
He's right. Magically, all of these posts show up on my computer through simple electricity...it's inexplicable. I bet someone could harness that electricity and manipulate votes if they were just crafty enough. ; )
The Dems consider them a form of discrimination (well, they're meant, after all, to discriminate against fraudulent "voters") and voter intimidation (again, they'd intimidate would-be frauds).
AP for Bush??????????
You are nuts!!!!!!
Is not AP a groupie of MSM? Certainly!!!!!
To much Kool-Aid for you snookems!!
"The Dems consider them a form of discrimination (well, they're meant, after all, to discriminate against fraudulent "voters") and voter intimidation (again, they'd intimidate would-be frauds)."
Are you serious? Clearly, I'm out of the loop on this (hanging head in shame) debate. How can asking for a picture ID be any form of discrimination? This is a joke, right? I'm not sure about other states- but here in Florida even if you don't have a driver's license- you must have a photo ID.
Hey...I'm not a Kool Aid drinker...you've mistaken me for someone else. I'm the one concerned about this new "electricity" and how it might impact our lives. : )
ELECTRICITY temporarily inconveniences millions of electrons every time you touch a key!!

Stupid comment, which makes the rest of the article suspect.
Stupid comment, which makes the rest of the article suspect.
No, this stupid comment makes the rest of the article suspect:
Computer experts say that signals can travel both to and from computerized voting machines through wireless technology, modems, and even simple electricity.
Actually, the only necessary and sufficient indicator of stupidity is the link: ecotalk.org
"Te AP is batting for a Bush Presidency..."
Yeah, right. The AP hates Bush's guts, which is why they joined with CBS is in the fake memos story. If anything, they are going to fix it for Kerry.
That is an absolute lie. I recall specifically seeing articles posted here prior to the 2000 election where AlGore had won the vote a couple of weeks beforehand. I'm sure it's in the archives here somewhere.
Where is the audit trail in electronic voting?
