1. Please everyone SEE THIS VIDEO.

This is what we are up against in Pennsylvania.

One bright spot is that Pittsburgh area folks, including several prominent computer scientists in the area (NOT Shamos, lol), and many dedicated 'regular citizens' have been incredibly diligent at observing Allegheny County L&A tests, vote tabulating, and other procedures.

The really scary thing is that Jim Parson's report only covers Allegheny County and these ES&S iVotronic machines are in use in 25 Pennsylvania counties overall, more than any other machine in the state.

We are sure that what goes on on elsewhere is likely just as bad --- or WORSE.
