...paper punch...really??? you don’t remember the “Chad” count with Bush/Gore????

/Those were in booklets which were ridiculous. Years ago I voted on a card like an old IBM key punch card. Each card was about 3 by 10 inches. You put them one at a time into a slot after which you pulled a lever down to punch a hole next to each of your choices. You could not pull the lever if the card was not seated properly. You could also see clearly that your hole was punched through. It was a very inexpensive way to vote and had a card that could be rechecked.

I guess election judges could vote many cards without people actually being in the precinct to vote. I think that this actually happens in 100% democratic precincts where all the election officials are Democrats, even the ones who sign in the Republican columns since no Republicans will go there. They could just reuse the electronic cards over and over. If Trump can get poll watchers, or better yet, election officials to go into those precincts, much voter fraud might be eliminated.

I don't like these ‘soros voting machines’ either, but I don't think that a ‘paper punch’ is any better...what happened to the old way of doing things, you walk in, show your Drivers License, they write it down, give you a number that matches your ballot and you take your ‘pen’ and go over and mark the box?

It took some time for people to count the votes, but I don't remember all this crap of a ‘fixed and fraudulent’ voting that we have now since the Bushes and Clintons brought it to the game, and I'm not sure it didn't happen with that idiot from Texas LBJ...sometimes I wonder what happened to Texas with the Presidents they send from there, we just got one of the out of this campaign, thank goodness!!!
