"Mike Kernell, a longtime Tennessee state assemblyman from Memphis and a technology enthusiast, is concerned about future elections because the new machines are harder to get a look at. ''We used to be able to check the machines and see if they'd been tampered with,'' he said. ''It is now almost impossible.'' Mr. Kernell wonders whether he will have to hire a computer programmer in his next race to make sure the machines are working smoothly and haven't been tampered with. ''We've hit a brick wall,'' he said." - NY Times
A "technology enthusiast" indeed. Did he help with his little boys homework assignment? Why has his blog disappeared?

Good find.
We can guess where he really falls on that issue.
I actually went to school with the Dad. What a fat, lazy mope. Used to get his sack lunch squashed in the vice at shop class, books glued to the table, etc. Far as I know he’s never done anything besides the Tennessee state representative gig. He’s on the local public access channel a lot with Steve (Jesus was a community activist/Pilate was a governor) Cohen.
If he trained his son as it appears, I guess we know where Democrats will turn to get training to hack voting machines.
Wh knows?

What right does he have hacking voting machines anyway?
Wh not find out more?
Wh would I even start to look?
I read it entirely differently.
He’s interested/concerned about the new machines because it will be harder to use existing methods of vote fraud.
Yeah he wants to be able to hire a computer programer to make sure the election turns out the right way.
That would be a pretty simple program to write.
Wh?
It sounds like he is whining that the new machines are tamper proof.
LOL - that looks like an onion bit...
Funny stuff...
Thats our Doug. Hehehehe. RIP George Putnam.
ROTFLMAO!

Is he the guy who invented the internet and then let Al Gore take the credit? jk
