My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my TV.
My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my automobile.

My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my public drinking water.

My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my USDA-inspected beef.

My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my microwave oven.

My vote should not have any more quality control checks than my new La-Z-Boy recliner.

I think that's fair.

4. More than the votes, rucky.
Spot checks at least. Smell tests, cleanliness, obvious trauma, stuff like that. Call that the minimum.

15. Really?
One quality control check is too much for you, I guess. Perhaps you are working for Huck.

13. So... are you saying there should never be a....
recount or any verifiable trail in which your vote can be certified?

No quality control means the sheeple lose every time.
