"The federal government gave us money for new machines but they didn't give us money for storing the machines. They didn't give us money to hire new technicians for these machines."

This isn't by any means an isolated example.

Why should these votefraud vendors get welfare when their products don't actually work?

These machines were forced on the America voters by whining liberals who could not suppress their infantile rage at losing the 2000 election.

Bring back the punch card machines. They have the same error rate, cost less, require less storage space, require less maintenace.

Voting machine eror is largely attributable to human error by the voter. Stupid people vote Democrat, so I say let the stupid people self-suppress their votes.

All because the simple act of punching a hole in a ballot was beyond the capability of some dimwits.

I agree that you should pick a new topic. This one isn't for you, though it's important to dutiful Americans. Loyal patriotic citizens don't sit back in complicity with waste of public funds, much less with disenfranchisement of voters. Perhaps you approve of the corrupt Democrat Rendell mob as it robs taxpayers to subvert elections, but others do not and their freedom of expression is part of their heritage in the United States of America. No one is forcing you to read anything which is beyond your abilities or which disturbs you for any other reason. Nor is anyone preventing you from initiating or commenting on topics which you prefer.

The machines were forced on the electors by the 'Help (Hack) America Vote Act, HAVA, of 2002, and by the deliberate misrepresentations of that law by those who seek to manipulate elections. The punch card machines are not relevant to the point that the electronics are extremely faulty and quite vulnerable to undetectable tampering, which makes them unsuitable for use in elections. As for the human error, it's in allowing racketeers such as the votefraud vendors to steal tax money and deprive voters of their representation in government.

Anyone who supports stealing from US public coffers and keeping Americans from being able to vote isn't really on the same side as the USA.

Well, it's really because certain corrupt groups want to be able to rig elections with ease and no risk of being caught.

You make an interesting point.

Legally, the people with standing in court to challenge elections are candidates.

No one should concede an electronic 'election', as there is no evidence that it'd be a valid one.

The Republicans responded admirably when they lost in the Nov. elections - so unlike their whining counterparts, who consistently blame everyone and everything except the obvious.

The punch card machines are not relevant to the point...

Wrong liberal breath, we should have stayed wiuth those "paper records".

It was a hysterical liberal emotional tantrum that wasted all that money.

Money for war not liberal wet dreams.

So what do we do? Outlaw liberals?

There are paper ballots which are preferable in design, for ease-of-use by the voter, than the punch cards.

If you were as conservative as I am, you'd reject the waste of taxpayer funds on defective 'voting' equipment.

What we need to do is defend our right to vote.

Perhaps you want a Communist Chinese to do it for you, but I'm a conservative and I'm capable of voting for myself.
