I don't think there are any election scams here though, because there is a very specific process of how the machines operate, basically, while it is theoretically possible to put a rigged cartridge into a machine, people in line would know that you're doing it
The whole optical scan thing means that we'd be bringing paper ballots back into Mobile County, and when paper ballots are involved, it is much easier to cheat, particularly the optical scan concept which is, fill out a mark with a pencil on a ballot and run it through a machine. Just like punchcard it could easily be manipulated, as some cards could be run through, some not, extra cards could be on hand, etc. Personally, I think our current system is safer, even with the lack of a paper trail.
I agree that there probably wasn't any election fraud. This is just liberal whining because they think they should win every election. If they don't, they wuz robbed.
What's funny is that the Liberals were the ones who raised all the hell about bringing new technology into the process after the 2000 election to prevent the Evil Bushies from stealing the next election.
