Anybody up?

Inquiring mind wants to know

1. Shows that the Mods don't understand this issue too well...
... this forum is about MUCH more than "verified voting" (and it's NOT a part of the VerifiedVoting organization.)

Votes MUST be auditable (Voter Verified Paper Ballots!) but what about voting rights, disenfranchised people, IRV, Electoral College and others?

There's waaayyyy more to this than VV.

2. Good points.
There already is a www.VerifiedVoting.Org

Very thorough and classy site, great people run it, some of the best in the movement but it's one extremely important aspect.

I see "Verified Voting" as a subset of a larger forum "Illigitimate Government" -- any government that cannot prove to the people that it holds office through legitimate means cannot be considered legitimate.
