1. IF we can win with the machines in place, this will be the acid test of

the party. If we do not, we are lost.

2. Honestly I think if the Dems win...the machine use must

be suspended....The machines must not be provided by a for profit company.

The machines should be created by a government organization with massive oversite...the government must distribute the machines and provide Federal laws ensuring consistant use across the nation.

Voting Days should become National Holidays so every American can vote if they choose to.

3. Fix the machines that just put them in power? Are you kidding???

They will be the first people to turn around and say this is proof there is no problem. Why would someone who just won "according to the machine" turn around and say the machines are faulty and wrong?

4. Fix them? No.

Scrap them? Yes.

5. Well, my senator

Barbara Boxer, will definitely be on the bandwagon to do something about the machines. Yes, I do think they will do something about it. If you look at who the co-sponsors are on Rush Holt's paper trail bill, you'll see that they are overwhelmingly Democratic. If you think they won't do anything just because they get power, well, I guess you're even more cynical than I am and that's saying something.
