Huh? ballots are supposed to be anonymous. Now you hold it against them?

I'm sorry that you misunderstood me Nadine... All I was saying is that absentee ballots are not anonymous, thus they should be considered EVEN MORE CREDIBLE than anonymous electronic ballots, if only for the reason that one can match an actual ballot with an actual voter.

With anonymous ballots, you JUST DON'T KNOW who cast that actual ballot. And because of the Federal "motor voter" law, many people voted who were not entitled to vote, either because of a criminal past, or because they are not US citizens.

You don't have to be a citizen to get a driver's license. But when you get your license, you are automatically registered to vote, regardless of whether you are a citizen or not.

Something tells me that the Motor Voter law, while maybe convenient, invites tremendous fraud to the system.

Remember, Gore offered a statewide recount and Bush turned it down.

That was not until after Bush had him over a barrel with regard to the 14th Amendment (equal protection under the law). And Gore DID EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to get absentee ballots discarded DESPITE the fact that he bellows "every vote is a human voice!!"

That is hardly a "statewide recount"... Gore want invalid ballots "devined" (mined?) for intent and counted.

But let's not give any slack to those Republican servicemembers for a lousy post mark...

Regards,

Ron
