In a manner of speaking. Depends on whether you expect elections to be fair and accurate or just a means of 'legiimizing' a dictatorship. First, you force everyone to adopt bad technology under deadlines to make sure it comes in before the election.. http://www.fec.gov/hava/hava.htm Note: Make sure that it is developed by loyal republican companies and that the election oversight commitees have NO rights to view ( proprietary ) code that they then 'certify'. And make sure that local 'audits' at the polling station will not show up a discrepancy. http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2003/07/268819.shtml And http://www.alternet.org/election04/20052/ "Danciu sued for access to the Sequoia source code to see if it was flawed. He was told that the source code was considered a trade secret under Florida law, and that even LePore and her staff ( the election officials) were *not authorised to examine it*, on pain of criminal prosecution. " Make sure that no state can institute a paper trail to ensure a post election check.. couldn't find my reference to this but it is true And make sure that you cannot have an avalance of paper 'advance votes' by people that know damn well that the button they push may not actually register a vote for the candidate they choose. http://www.independent-media.tv/item...ory_desc=Under %20Reported Then you can rig the election to give yourself a victory. http://www.alternet.org/story/16474 The Theft of Your Vote Is Just a Chip Away Rigging elections, by the way, is hardly even a 'conspiracy theory' in the U.S. where it has a LONG tradition. See http://wheresthepaper.org/ below for a nice illustration of the new RepubliCON election strategy.. but you may have to wait till late at night because either the Republicons are blocking it or it is way overloaded with people discovering for themselves how easy it is to rig an election that is entirely electronic and with no backup record to ensure against tampering. However, the alternet reference should also illustrate the issue. also http://avirubin.com/vote.pdf http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/HL0312/S00156.htm http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/HL0307/S00065.htm http://www.blackboxvoting.org/access-diebold.htm#votes http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp...entId=A42085-2 003Aug10¬Found=true About 30% of the voters will be using video terminals and have no record of who they really voted for. I mean Diebolt manufactures ATM machines and how hard is it to get a receipt from your atm??? And Bush pushed the "Help America Vote Act" which *mandates" video voting by 2008 and pays for the machines ( made by their republican buddies). He wasn't going to chance obvious vote tampering. High tech vote tampering is the way to go.. Then they went back and mandated video voting by 2004 elections! http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c108:H.2239: Sec 5a.. http://www.siliconvalley.com/mld/sil...ey/6791541.htm Only California has really confronted the issue. http://www.ss.ca.gov/elections/ks_dr...rs/decert1.pdf Voter tampering doesn't even have to be by corrupt officials! http://cryptome.org/hack-vote.htm "They were disturbingly successful. It was an "easy matter," they reported, to reprogram the access cards used by voters and vote multiple times. They were able to attach a keyboard to a voting terminal and change its vote count. And by exploiting a software flaw and using a modem, they were able to change votes from a remote location." And note that most video terminals are now equipped with modems because of 'errors' in election officials unable to bring in the electronic recording chip that didn't require online access. The fraud is easier to detect if you need to attach a keyboard to the machine itself. Note that the effort to make the vote 'uncountable' by the republicans is another clue. It ensures that the output of the code *proprietary to and only examined by the three republican companies that make the voting machines* will be the 'last word' not matter how egregious the tampering. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald...te%3DcontentMo dules/printstory.jsp and hand in hand with this legislation, the voting machine manufacturers ( all republican owned) plan to harass any state that tries to provide a paper trail. http://www.coastalpost.com/04/01/01a.htm And how this affects the voting can be easily demonstrated.. http://wheresthepaper.org/ Can you elect John Doe? And other games can be played such as offering alternative 'paper ballots' and then invalidating the votes by claiming error.. http://news.bostonherald.com/nationa...rticleid=28812 But the most telling point will be that, rather than eliminating fraud and vote tampering, the video voting terminals will undoubtably increase both the conflicts and the inabilty to resolve them. "1/13/04 Sun Sentinel, FL: the consequences of no paper audit trail - "Bogdanoff's closest competitor, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Mayor Oliver Parker, told Broward elections officials that the results of the election wouldn't be legal until they counted all the undervotes by hand. And since machine ballots can't be counted by hand, Parker said the voting machines in South Florida are illegal. Broward County Canvassing Board Attorney Ed Dion dismissed the claim, saying the voting machines had been approved by state officials. A letter Monday from the office of state Secretary Glenda Hood, Florida's top election official, left the decision of how to perform the manual recount up to the local officials. The letter said state law was unclear on how to resolve the Broward dilemma, adding that state recount rules were currently being revised. Parker conceded after Broward's canvassing board chose to manually recount only the five invalid paper ballots cast by absentee -- and not revisit machine-cast ballots." Well, we all know Teamp Chimpy never "won" the 2000 election other than the 5-4 vote on the Supreme Court, which brings up another question - why does anyone call Bush "President Bush"? He's not the frickin' president! He never won the election! The majority of voters voted for Gore. Yeah, I know how the electorial college works, but that did not come into play any more than the popular vote. The chimp was appointed. And now it looks like they're gonna cheat him in there again. Sheeks, what a perverse tragedy and failure of democracy. If there were only some other planet to go to to get away from fascist liars and cheaters, I'd be in heaven.

He's not the frickin' president! He never won the election! Certainly, but you are working under the misapprehension that the U.S. is a democracy. Nothing in the U.S. election laws makes the popular vote binding. It is primarily a function of the fifty states (thus the electoral college system), which may or may not recognise the dominant vote of their own state citizens. The majority of voters voted for Gore. Yeah, I know how the electorial college works, but that did not come into play any more than the popular vote. The chimp was appointed. Certainly. One of the problems is that he is trying to be a 'war president' in order to gain legitimacy that the (s)election did not give him. And now it looks like they're gonna cheat him in there again. Sheeks, what a perverse tragedy and failure of democracy. The corporations have taken control through the rightwing neocons and the rise of fascism. They have no real interest in nations, only power. Economic power has taken over from the old territorial imperatives.. If there were only some other planet to go to to get away from fascist liars and cheaters, I'd be in heaven. Sweden?
