Just curious, do you feel the same way about electronic banking? Use a credit or debit card?
I have no credit cards. Only one for the ATM. I trust my bank, plus I can review my banking history for possible errors. Why would they cheat me out of small amounts?
For elections much more is at stake, getting into power could mean raking in millions, sending the military to various wars, imposing laws. etc.
I think they should count the paper ballots that come out of those machines to make sure there was no funny business going on there. If there's not a big difference and same person wins each time then use the machine as the official count because of human error. But if the machine says one person won but the hand counting says the other person wins then go with the hand counting.
I know before that some of those machines didn't have a paper trail but they all do now right? I mean with all these Republicans being so concerned about the integrity of the elections I'm sure they did something about that
Given the history of the Democratic machine and their election fraud, I think you anger is misplaced. And having known someone who drove senior citizens to the polls, accompanied them into the booths and pushed the levers for them as part of the Democratic corruption, I really think your anger is misplaced.
If the senior citizens asked for assistance there is nothing wrong with that at all
Whoever loses the election, regardless of party, will be said to have stolen the election through some kind of voter fraud.
Just vote independent or third party.
With the machines it's not voter fraud, it's election fraud which is much more dangerous and serious
Voter fraud is when I've registered as a dead person so after casting my legal vote I go across town and vote as the dead person. One extra vote, woo hoo!
Election fraud is when I hack into the machine and switch the numbers

Just curious, when you use electronic banking do you get some kind of verification? Something that you could use to say "yes I did!" when the bank claims you never deposited that $10,000? Do you get a statement from your credit card company every month detailing what you purchased and for how much and when?
When I make a banking transaction, a receipt is given, or I can print a copy. The voting machines could do that, too.
I sat at a Commissioners Court meeting while the man from the voting machine company the county was considering demonstrated how to rig the machine. They can be hacked from a distant place also. Seen the demonstration.
If I can vote in 2 different places in the same state, it is the state who needs to get up to date. Visa knows where I am and when. The state and county could, too.
What difference does it really make? The rich control who runs, who gets funded and the airwaves. We only know what they want us to know.
Nobody is trivializing old folks. 10% do not have photo id.
Voting in America doesn't change things much anyway.
