While I obviously support better election security, we CANNOT wait for our elected officials to legislate reforms. My whole post is about concrete steps we can take now to prevent elections from being stolen.

I'm in Michigan and a few years ago I noticed something I thought odd when I voted.

One of the poll workers was making different marks on the voter lists as she marked those that were given a ballot.

Michigan has no party registrations anymore but they used to.

Some voters were marked with a Hi-lighter all the way across the name and some only half.

I questioned why my name was marked different that several above it and she turned rather pale and said she likes to mark some different.

I then noticed that some that were longtime voters still had the “D” or “R” next to the names and only the “R” had the half mark. The “D” or no letter had the full mark.

I don't know what the reason for sorting out was but it might have been a way to know which ballots to change later?

So, lets get started, we’ve got enough bodies here. Are the election rolls accessible online? Lets pick a district to start with, maybe someone can load the list into a spreadsheet and do a “sort by address”? We can at least get a head start on tracking phantoms together. Then we can send the list of suspects to someone who can check locally.

Anyone else want to help Freep The Vote?
