You are dead-on correct, it truly sucks that this many errors can happen. It’s just COUNTING people, what we learn how to do in kindergarten! There is not a lot of chatter about requiring photo ID to vote in WI - something the legislature should have taken care of while the fleabaggers were out of the state. They should anyway....
Two big problems: The potential for fraud, and the potential for error. Having a county official rely on an old PC just because she felt like it is the height of incompetence.
And when we lose faith in the voting booth, revolution soon follows.
there haven’t really been extensive errors in the system itself — the errors have all been either news reporting errors or errors in unofficial tallies. it is when the official tallies are taken, as was happening today, that the official vote is found. so the system is actually working.
and "blue finger" after ID...good enough for Iraq.
