Well that was certainly comforting!! Yikes, this is not good.

“If I was feeling benevolent that day, I might allow them to vote if they turned them inside out and the image wasn’t readily identifiable. Otherwise, TS.”

That could get interesting if half or more were college girls.

That thought had already crossed my mind!

I happen to live in NC but in our part of the state they use the ‘old dumb’ paper ballots where you fill in the circles. No hanging chads, no software issues.

OTOH, I’ve always thought ALL voting should give you a ‘receipt’ of your choices so that you can compare (or protest!) when things don’t match up. A receipt on paper of every choice.
