While I am usually loathe to discuss any political topic in a public forum, but I feel strongly about this.
Although the link below is through a political group, I hope you will agree with me that this is not a partisan issue, but rather one about fundamental rights and the ability to verify the true winner in an election. A number of voting districts have already taken steps to limit or eliminate electronic voting after fiascos involving the proper functioning of these machines. These machines are basically specialized PCs - just think about how often you have issues with yours... hackers... etc...
I felt obligated to share the opportunity afforded by MoveOn to express your opinion if you agree with me. If you do not, please forgive the inconvenience. Here is the link:
