130. Thank You for your reply, ...
I'm was gone for the weekend and have just returned, thank you for your prompt reply. Yes what you have written makes the situation much more clear, and does not surprise me in the least, the attempt at flim flam that is.

It seems the opposition of the 'real paper ballot' to be the record that is counted, is the use of DRE's rather than scanners, that deal with the voters hard copy. Otherwise with the DREs the electronic blip is counted, not the paper receipt; at best naivety at worst, clever and despicably devious.

This is the result HAVA unleashed with five billion dollars of ill considered spending for untraceable electrons masquerading as our votes. And now, rather than admit a spending blunder with our tax money, and removing the DREs from the process, they resort to a half fix which is an illusion and then sell it with a misleading Bill summary. Hard to believe this is anything other than the worst case scenario, perpetrated by some in both parties. What is it they fear from fair, honest and accountable elections?

Thank you for clearing this up. Time to contact the congress critters for all the good it will do.
