"might". Hmmmm. Not what I wanted to hear. The panel of the Ninth Circuit agreed with the American Civil Liberties Union and other plaintiffs that holding the election on Oct. 7 as scheduled would be wrong because some votes would be cast on outdated punch-card machines, making them less likely to be counted. If use of them invalidates a recall, then use of them to elect him invalidates his election. The ruling on Monday was a triumph - temporary or otherwise for - the American Civil Liberties Union and the other parties arguing that the recall campaign was a hasty, ill-advised way to decide Governor Davis's political fate. The 9th circuit and the ACLU are partisan political organizations. AND MSI is now saying that the more modern technology is also insecure and unreliable. It appears democracy will have to be shut down in the 9th circuit. Message 19310811
