31. Do you vote on a Diebold machine in your precinct?
I do. And I, like most human beings, am selfish. Diebold is the #1 electoral issue for me because it affects me directly. The poll workers at my precinct are clueless about it, which shows we have not made ENOUGH of an issue of the machines. Meanwhile, I read that Conn. has disallowed Diebold or other touch screen machines in their state because they're unreliable. But I'm stuck voting on a 3rd rate product. Never mind cheating -- the machines are completely unverifiable and unreliable, and they need to go. Poor and shoddy accounting for the most important thing in this country -- voting -- is unacceptable and should NOT be tolerated by the electorate.

I think we need to get Republicans on board with this -- they need to be told that the chickens will come home to roost one day -- that what is being done to Dems now COULD be done to GOPers way off in the future, and it's best to fix it now.
