Dear Dear Nadine, I always love liberal vacant minds who are clueless of automated processes

Tom,
For your employer's sake, I hope you conduct your engineering work with greater rationality than your SI posts would indicate.

Statewide, Florida had a ballot reject rate of over 3% (in majority black districts, it was 10%). I did not learn this from "talking heads" but from the elections officials of Florida.

Where I come from, we do not call processes with a 3% error rate "100% accurate". Nor do I have blind faith that a process is perfect just because it is an "automated process".

Programs have bugs, machines go out of tolerance, and users behave in unanticipated ways. Even the manufacturer of the Votomatic machines admits as much, but apparently you know better.
