As far as I am concerned, Diebold is evil and should have nothing to do with our elections. And that is NOT intended to be a partisan comment, their e-mails and their overall behaviour reveal that they simply appear to be completely and thoroughly corrupt.
We have been screaming for months that these paperless machines should not be used. Again, it's not a partisan arguement - it's just a reality that these machines are not worthy of ANYONE's trust.
To resolve this, other than throwing the silly things away, we need to pass HR2239 and S1980. Those bills require a voter-verified paper ballot for these touchscreen systems, and a paper-based backup for November (if the VVPB cannot be installed by that time.) If you will help us do that, all of us: "left, center and right" will win. Democracy will win.
Please visit www.verifiedvoting.org and become involved. You are more than welcome, we need you badly. We are a non-partisan effort. Hope to see ya there.
