1. They probably..
... chickened out. Don't blame them, much, who would listen anyway? Most of the idiot masses just love the new voting systems.

And you can bet, those same idiots thank gawd the press won't/don't cover the story. That way it's not an issue.

2. I don't think that most people "just love the new voting systems".
According to an email from CA Senator Bowen, some 48% of people surveyed didn't think that their votes were counted correctly or counted at all.

And that was from a few months back. As more e-voting scandals develop, I certainly believe that number will rise.

3. I think he was referring to...
Edited on Sat May-06-06 12:09 PM by organik
an article in Rolling Stone by Robert Kennedy Jr. - heard that was on the way on Ring of Fire (Air America Radio).

A Kennedy writing about election fraud in Rolling Stone...wouldn't that be great!

5. Do you know who and can't tell
or you don't know who? Where will we look to find out?

I want to make sure I don't miss any beans if they spill. I want to drop some beans off at my local elecitons office.
