| Can we work with the present vendors? |
|
There is alot of talk about this vendor that and this. Let's try and make something real happen. My suggestion.
1. Everyone work with their local county election officials BEFORE every election. Ask questions and understand the process.
2. The "vendors" are there providing a service, work with them to understand.
This is going to be an unprecedented event. 2006 all vendors are receiving money to implement new voting systems. Work with your local elections office to understand the process. Every election has a Public test in which you can watch and ask questions. Please go there and do that. Do it BEFORE the election. It is in your hand.
