I'm voting at 10:00 this morning as I'm meeting my 86 year old mom at the polls. We use paper ballots, fill in a line of an arrow pointing at the candidates name, and slide them into an optical scanner. Talking to our local Probate Judge recently, she mentioned that we've only had two recounts during her four term tenure. Both recounts resulted in identical numbers as the original count. I thought that was pretty cool.

I'm an Alabama voter as well. :) Good #'s at my precinct.

Of course it is - but then Bush/Rove/Cheney have it all planned out in advance, you know.

I like that optical scanner and I don't understand why EVERYBODY doesn't use it.
