Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org

Today has been a slow day which is probably a good thing because there are elections happening in different states around the country. No news means there was nothing reported to the media so everything went smoothly or no reports of failures leaked out.

See below for notable voting news stories which are rolling today…

  • CT: New Voting Machines: Budget decision is ‘optical scan’ LINK
  • FL: Touch-Screen Ballots Voted Out in Florida
    Governor set to sign bill making optical scan the system of choice LINK
  • FL: Sarasota County ““ Opinion – Legislators back in town and speaking LINK
  • MS: Jackson County – Contract would pay for help with primaries LINK
  • NY: Editorial – The vote is in LINK
  • OH: Athens County – Vote-counting process avoids problems that plagued it last fall LINK
  • PA: Weather prediction may also foretell election turnout LINK
  • PA: Voting in Mercer County is simplified, director says LINK
  • PA: Mercer County – Looking for trouble

      Maybe slow today, but the scandals continue:

      Environmental scientist Dr. Cate Jenkins of the EPA issued a complaint today alleging fraud by the United States Geological Survey, OSHA, EPA and New York City, among others, in reporting corrosive Ph levels following the attacks of 9/11. Sent to Hillary Clinton, Chair of the Subcommittee on Superfund and Environmental Health, and later to the FBI for investigation, the complaint also alleges that EPA has engaged in fraud regarding Ph levels dating back to 1980.

      Continuing a career of whistleblowing that began when she exposed Monsanto’s coverup of the toxic effects of Agent Orange, Jenkins points out that WTC dust was so alkaline (ie caustic), it would have caused irreversible tissue damage to the lungs in the form of chemical burns.

      (FTW, emphasis added). The committee will hold hearings, then perhaps craft some legislation, then vote it out of committee.
