Yeah, let's replace physical punch cards with hackable and unrecountable "touch screens."

Great idea! Let's get the urban vote up to 120% 'rat!

physical punch cards

I like the punch cards. Every election I've ever voted in was a punch card ( going back to 1976 ).

No problems. No complaints.

The debate over touch screens is truly bipartisan and interesting to watch.

Because the potential to be hacked is so uncontrollable, dems are very leery of the possibility that the demon republicans will be doing the hacking.

Both parties are putting the brakes on more widespread usage of this way of 'recording' a vote.

I think there was a county in Florida that did that even with the chads. Chicago must have had some votes left over and shipped them down at the last minute. Hey, what are friends for?
