73. Interesting that some feel that you should prove it

Amazing!

You are not the " Prove It Person."

You presented us with a clip that I found to be in keeping with what has happened/will happen......

"it took nearly two years before the failures were discovered after the New York Daily News was able to examine the paper ballots via a public records request. In Oakland County, MI, election officials were lucky enough to discover the failure during pre-election testing. And in Leon County, FL, the hacker --- a computer security expert --- revealed the op-scan system flaw he exploited to flip the results of the election in an Emmy-nominated HBO documentary."

Sure would love to see the HBO documentary!

Who makes the machines?
Is there a Team of Fair and Balanced Computer Giants -- some Republicans, Some Democrats that make sure that there are no flaws and everything is "Fair and Balanced"

Did one of the Labor Union bosses sneak into the building in the middle of the night and decide that they would make sure that everything was A OK for the Democrats ---- bet that didn't happen.

What are the chances that the Machines are made by a firm that is owned by a Democrat? That one would be a real surprise. I would love to know if that is true. Correct me if I am wrong please.
