The ONLY one who'll win in 08 is the one who works to expose machine fraud |

and works with the DNC to secure the machines.
And that person will DESERVE it.
This country needs REAL, OPEN GOVERNMENT NOW.

1. True. We MUST have a paper verified vote or get rid of the freakin' |
|
machines. Greg Palast was on C-SPAN and said the repukes will steal the next elections. They must be stopped. Who will do that?

3. Just heard Palast on Democracy Now |
|
Scary :scared:
Here is what we are telling our voters here - ADVANCE VOTE. In Kansas, that gets you a paper ballot. In MO, we are telling the voters to get an absentee ballot. Again, it is paper. Until we get rid of the damn machines, that is the best way around them.

6. Make an issue out of the proven FACT that the machines CAN be programmed |
|
for fraud.
That's a fact they have NOW, and it can be used as a start to EDUCATE the citizenry about what is happening or COULD be happening to their votes.

9. Well I think we are doing that |
|
And even if we manage to communicate that message, we will still be using Diebold machines in November.
So let's go for paper ballots in the meantime.

10. What's legal re voting issues is a problem, too. |
|
Like the purging of voter rolls.
