1. No sh*t, Sherlock.

3. Well, yeah, but

considering the way some folks respond when you try to point out the problem, more evidence always helps.

To be meaningful, the right to vote must include the right to witness the counting. I just keep repeating that, hoping it will stick.

4. Of course, but the 'folks' who need facts/evidence are not at DU,

unfortunately.

[eomer]

5. Some of them are...

unfortunately.

6. Voting

Stalin understood voting. "It's not who votes that determines elections - It's who COUNTS the votes that determines elections".

7. Of course they are...and I have no doubt it's an intentional design feature.

Gas pumps, ATM's, and postal machines are not only quite safe, they can even give you a printed receipt of your transaction. EVM's not so much...so you have to ask yourself why. Only one answer makes sense, and that is the EVM are functioning as intended. Facillitated by funds through "Help America Vote", that's what they do...if you vote the wrong way, they automatically HELP you by correcting your vote to the predetermined winner.

8. Agreed.

10. Another "well DUH!" moment.

[chervilant]

11. No duh!

How many times are we going to have to hear this before We The People refuse to play in the corporatists' reindeer games?!?
