66. Sorry about the stats-speak
and yes, it is bass-ackwards.

Nobody should feel they have to use inferential statistics to find out whether their vote was counted.

And I'd really like to see a civil rights case brought regarding the provision of voting machines in Ohio. I don't think you even have to prove intent to disenfranchise, just a systematic effect - but I'm not a lawyer!

Cheers

Lizzie
