84. If I put it behind me, the Repubs will keep it in front of me.
I was tempted to vote fot the one about legislation being able to solve the electoral problems. I don't see how you can have fair elections w/o more legislation. But that means a loud and open movement for reform of the voting machines. Unless there's a nation-wide movement to reform the way the votes are counted, the Repubs are not going to do doodly squat. If there's a loud and unified and unremitting protest that doesn't stop for anything, then they'll have to do something. In time, maybe the Dems will develop a little spine, maybe w/ the help of Dean and Boxer and Greg Palast et al.

DEMAND A VOTER-VERIFIED PAPER BALLOT AND FAIR AUDITS FOR ALL ELECTIONS.
