My reply,
Machines with paper trails are not the answer because computers can be
programmed to do everything but cook breakfast both before and after the
election. One could easily program machines to register one result on
the machine and another on the paper receipt, for example. An election
is only as valid as the integrity and neutrality of the people setting
up the machines, assembling the votes, transporting the votes, and
counting the votes. No, the situation is so EXTREMELY SERIOUS in the
United States, the nation is so polarized, philosophies are so widely
divergent, those handling the entire process [the majority of whom are
republicans] are so biased and prejudiced that people from other nations
with no ax to grind and no interest in the candidates will have to be
brought in to monitor the entire process, as has been done in many
nations throughout the world. The United States can no longer be an
exception. Otherwise, you can forget about ever having another valid
election and the only alternative for real change will become mass
upheaval or the threat of same.
To those feeling they can find a sufficient number of truly neutral and
honest individuals within the United States, I can only say, "Good luck.
You may succeed but I am yet to see how, since that prospect appears
more remote with every passing day."
for the cause,
Klo
