16. Our Leaders, indeed
Even some "Leaders" here on DU don't get it. They cry and cry that we need machines to count the votes, when, above all, they should know that is the road to hell. And here we are.

Let us focus on 2006. We have 12 months to get it right. In other words, the system to vote will have to be set-up by then, and if it isn't all paper, we will lose again.

The 2006 elections are going to be the turning point if we make it so. After that election we will have another 12 months to refine the process further, with the possibility that some kind of open and secure Optical Scan system would suffice, but for the next election it needs to be Paper ballots, hand counted.

2006 Elections: Unplugged.
