Republican from Florida has a bad idea for elections.
Tell your Congressperson to vote against an amendment to Rush Holt's verified voting bill from Tom Feeney.

Florida Republican Tom Feeney's amendment would let states decide if the voters' prinout from an electronic voting machine is the official ballot, or just a meaninglesss piece of paper.

Easy to use form:

1. Wasn't he State Speaker of the House during the recount?
I might be wrong, but didn't he say that he would draw up a slate of electors for Bush regardless of the outcome of the election.

3. I believe so, as well as the one in the middle of Ohio stolen election
problems with hacking the machine or creating computer software to steal elections.

5. No wonder he wants to invalidate paper ballots
I'm surprised Katherine Harris isn't a co-sponser of this amendment.

6. He was also the one in that whole vote-theft software thing.
I forget the name of the guy that accused him of it...he was at the electoral college protest.

13. Yikes. All Republicans with bad ideas (particularly bad election
ideas) need to be stomped on immediately! We can't afford to let them do any more damage.
