There's been election fraud and ballot box stuffing all over this country. In addition to Daly's machine in Chicago, Texas is also famous for voting chicanery. Then there were the mechanical voting machine frauds. Florida had many voting and administration problems in 2000.

That's why we can't allow electronic tabulation of votes with out the paper trail. And even with that we need to be vigilant against fraud.

I hope that you and anyone else reading this will contact their Secretary of State or Auditor and make known to them that you want accountability, and a paper ballot. I don't care if they want to use computers in the voting process, but it needs to print out a paper ballot, whereby the voter can verify that their selections are correct, fold the ballot and then put it in the ballot box. This should be the only acceptable method. Either that or a mark sense form filled out by the voter, in ink.

Everyone needs to do their part to make sure that each vote counts, and counts once ;^).
