whether you believe the "election" was fraudulent or not |
|
if we don't get the electronic cheat machines out of play NOW, we will never win another election. It will gradually get worse and worse and worse

3. we have to fight this--and we can win |
|
this is a purely local issue around the country.
Counties, Townships and even smaller jurisdictions usually control what voting process is put in place.
We don't have to fight repukes in the Senate or the House or the Judiciary.
You can do this right in your own back yard.

5. don't just fuck 'em---change 'em |
|
start tomorrow. find out if there is a fair voting advocacy group in your community or your state. work to get the repuke cheat macchines thrown out and replaced with paper ballots or systems with a paper audit trail of each vote.

4. yes, this is THE issue. |
|
I want to hope against hope that the dems are somewhere in a huddle drawing up a game plan to get VVPB into play.
If they are not they aren't worth a shit.

7. I'm not saying don't fix other things |
|
starting with a total restructuring and refocusing of the party. I've posted at least thirty or forty times about that today.
But as long as vote fraud is not documentable via a paper trail, there will be an ever escalating motivation for fraud. It is well documented that Repukes engage in vote fraud systematically. We will be screwed as long as these machines are in place.
