Many progressive areas of VA have those pesky voting machines

[rainy]

Honestly, what should we do about them? Norfolk has them and many parts of Northern VA. I was at the Kaine and Obama rally the other day and spoke to Bobby Scott about these machines and he agreed they were a problem, but, NO ONE will do anything about them. What should WE do? Can we demand any validation of our vote at the time of voting?
