I hate to agree with Krugman, but I don't like touch screen voting either, Uh, that isn't what he's saying. He's saying that Diebold is rigging their voting machines to favor Republicans.
Do you still agree with him?

LEt me be clear I do not have any illusions that touch screen voting is immune from vote fraud. The problem is the Democrats are addicted to vote manipulation and their big complaint seems to be that they will have to retrain their vote fraud personnel. Of course some Democrats see the potential to magnify their vote fraud.
Clearly there is no absolutely secfure voting method. From paper ballots, to mechanical voting machines, to punched cards and now to electronic digital methods fraud techniques have eveolved along with the technology.
Of course the Dems will use any means to steal an election.

No, I don't agree that Diebold or the GOP are rigging the votes. However, overall, electronic voting machines make fraud harder to detect and harder to disprove.
The more electronic voting there is, the more paranoids like Krugman are going to be able to cast doubt on any result they don't like, no matter how honest.
