Guest Blogged by Alan Breslauer

Joe Scarborough, Bob Shrum and Pat Buchanan all go off on e-voting machines earlier today. Scarborough and Shrum also wonder what Republican’s have against paper trails. All three pundits look for Democrats to retake the House.

    Ummm… Here (in Germany) it is 11PM, and the reports of election rigging and vote stealing don’t come in the way i expected. Are you, the good citizens of the USA, willing to have your voices taken away from you? Again?

    Get out and vote! Take a camera with you! If you experience any problem: document it, report it, file it, make noise! I will stay awake with you…

    Regards

    Where were these guys one year ago ? Two years ago ?
    Three years ago ? Four years ago ? Five years ago ? Six years ago ?

    Has Democracy all of a sudden become fashionable again. One can only hope Fascism has not done irreparable harm.

    #3, thanks!

    Martin, don’t dwell on Adolf. Although, Bush may yet succeed in starting a nuclear war!

    But I’m getting slightly surprised as well: I would have thought the problems would be more evident by now. This could be good, but it could also be very bad: a surreptitious, professional mass-hack at the tabulation level is a worse threat than isolated machine-level hacks. But still, why haven’t individual vandals defaced the displays of some machines, for example? I mean, aren’t some Sequoia machines basically WinCE boxes in a wireless network?

    Well, here in Ohio, the Dems just filed suit(in Cuyahoga Cty.) to #1 keep the polls that didn’t open on time open later to allow voters to come back and vote. #2 We want the votes that were cast on paper because the voting machines didn’t work in many of polling places to be counted tonite. They are regular ballots and not prov. The BOE says “it would be too much hardship to count these as they would have to bring the scanners down to BOE” and apparently stay up past bedtime! They want to just count these with the prov. ballots and record them 10 days later with the official canvass!

    Hmmmmm so much for your vote counting on paper Either!
