1. There are 165,000 voting places in the country.

Money given to states for voting machines determined by size.

[LittleApple81]

2. This woman has no idea about the real issues with BBV (or doesn't

want to know...
November is 3 months away...we already spent the money...let's continue with the machines...hmmm
They have not jurisdiction on machines selected but provide guidelines and methods to keep voting fair and protected... hmmmm
This election stuff is totally FUBAR

[LittleApple81]

3. In most States absentee ballots are counted several DAYS after

the election... so what good does it do to vote absentee????
If the winner is declared the same day, how are they going to reverse it days later?

7. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.........as usual , c-span invites a "know-nothing"

namby pamby to "explain" how wonderful everything is.. I was so hoping that someone would call in and demand that they invite someone like say...Bev or Andy... They have the press credentials now to be considered, yet this "spokesperson" is the one they chose..

Pelosi and Daschle apparently recommended her for her position.. She is from an organization called worldspace foundation.. (the name is different now) ..they are associated with the World bank..surprise surprise..

It tickled me that she said that "voting" was complicated..

Canada seems to have few problems with PAPER..

Our politicians have MADE it complicated.. and dangerous to our democracy too..:(

9. Another No Nothing - Do Nothing Commission

I was stunned that this woman placed herself in a position of showing her utter ignorance to millions of viewers of C-SPAN.

With the education I have received via the BBV investigators and DU posters I became enraged thinking that this woman who claims to be a Democrat is nothing more than a prop for this administration. She will sign-off on a report that she has no understanding of, she will be given alcholades for all her hard work.
