Why is Facebook a PLATINUM Corporate Sponsor for the National Assoc. Sec'ys of State??????

Once again, another NASS (National Association of Secretaries of State) conference has come and gone. High ranking elections officials have convened with an agenda filled with discussions about making computerized voting more secure. Not one discussion about conducting transparent elections, i.e. hand-counted paper ballots at the precinct level with public oversight.

The conference agenda is at this link (heavy on cybersecurity -- whatta joke )
