Everyone acknowledges that smaller turnouts favor the GOP candidates. Therefore, we cannot afford, as a nation, to have people think it is a waste of time to vote.<br /><br />When I contacted our Election Commisioner (county), he said it would be a good idea if we used machines that could produce a double paper trail (one receipt for the voter and one for the county - which the voter could check before handing it over to the poll officials. However, he said they simply could not afford it.<br /><br />What we cannot afford is a system that can be easily duped, people losing faith that their votes count, and loss of our national reputationa as a leading democracy.<br /><br />You'd think conservatives would worry about their votes, but I suspect either they don't think about these things or they instinctly know the fix is in for their favor.<br /><br />I want my tax dollars spent on reliable systems that uphold the integrity of our votes.
