12. So, then, you have no solution.

You only have condescending, and possibly sexist, personal attacks and problems that may encourage Democrats not to bother voting with nothing that can be done about it in the next month. Good job. Keep that up.

Why don't you do some research?	cali	Oct 2012	#2
So, what is your point, then?	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#5
...also, you failed to suggest a solution. Please do so. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#8
do try reading, honey.	cali	Oct 2012	#9
I'm not your "honey," condescending person, and that is no solution.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#10
It's in my prior post.	cali	Oct 2012	#11

The part we're worried about is, "...and all the votes are counted..."	CrispyQ	Oct 2012	#3
How would that help those effected by the myriad of new laws	cali	Oct 2012	#4
It doesn't. The whole fucking electoral system is corrupt & compromised.	CrispyQ	Oct 2012	#6
That's my take. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#14
Agreed, but electronic voting machines are a reality in this election, as they have been since 2000.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#7
Anyone who actually has a solution? We have roughly a month. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#13
This is not an irrational position. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#15
The one Australia adopted over 20 years ago - mandatory voting.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#16
I could support that. Isn't voting our civic duty?	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#17
Beyond that, you've got to have some faith that the machines haven't been fucked with.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#18
It's easier if the election is actually close. I'm not convinced it will be. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#19
There's no indication that it will be close. That's why I said "only so much".	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#20
Right, we're agreeing.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#21
What I don't buy is the "paper trails are expensive" argument. That's bullshit.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#22
Yep, that's bullshit.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#23
It's been privatized all along. Diebold isn't exactly a charity operation and certainly not "gubmint	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#24
Again, if the boss wanted it, they would make the change.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#25
I'm afraid "county by county" (or townships here in PA) will be the only path to success.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#26
I only say state level because of state laws. Local is the best place to start. n/t	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#27
PA's a little different. We have 66 counties, but they don't amount to much.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#28
I don't think people realize how different things are state by state.	porphyrian	Oct 2012	#29
I grew up in MD where EVERYTHING was at the county level. PA and NH were quite different.	HopeHoops	Oct 2012	#30
I like THAT one.	Tigress DEM	Oct 2012	#33
