36. Does this bill address all of the possible problems?
Particularly after reading the VotersUnite.org document "Myth Breakers," I am concerned that lay people (like me) do not and cannot fully understand all of the subtle possibilities of manipulation and error in electronic voting and counting systems.

Before we support any bill, have the computer gurus in the progressive movement satisfied themselves that the bill in question adequately addresses all of these concerns.

I want to move forward as quickly as possible, but not at the cost of pretending to fully correct problems that are not in fact eliminated by the proposed legislation.

Andy, what's your take on how well this bill comprehensively addresses all reasonably-predictable problems?
