Grover Norquist: "I never thought about that before."
from OpEdNews Exclusive
NORQUIST: "We should be able to watch the vote counts. I've been involved with watching vote counts before... "

OPEDNEWS: (tapping on a laptop) But the votes these days are counted using invisible electrons on hard drives.

NORQUIST: "I never thought about that before." <..> "It needs to be transparent -- however they do that...."

3. Yeah, look at Ohio. The GOP no longer controls the SoS vote counters
Funny, didn't Dems win almost every local election this time around. No wonder Grover is grumpy.

5. Amazing really, a guy like me gets it.
The problem with e-voting that is, and why transparency is so important. But Mr. Norquist a well educated political Savoy operative doesn't, he really needs to get out more.

Peace!
