But for those that have gone to the trouble to exercise their privilege, then tabulating should be as close to 100% a possible. To advocate counting less thoroughly in any precinct undermines people's perception that their vote counts. Perhaps our next system will record our photo as well as our vote? I wouldn't deny anyone that can drag themselves to the voting booth (or TV if it comes to that)the right to exercise and be counted. Our smorgasboard of voting systems undermines our ability to ensure that our vote did count. Hmmmmmm. Makes me wonder if it isn't our individual right to have proof that our vote did count. Seems reasonable. I do recognize the hypnosis of statistics lulling us into thinking that its OK to have our vote thrown out. I am an ardent Electoral College supporter however. Regards, J
