Who Needs Diebold?

by Nicholas Beaudrot of Electoral Math

I've long thought that the conspiracy theories about software-based vote-rigging are overblown. After all, there are many, many ways to stack the deck in an election without quite so obviously breaking the law. Take, for instance, the upcoming New Orleans City Council races. The Council has Shelley Stephenson Midura (D). You can contribute over the web.[br />

1. It is a Question of Scale
Edited on Tue May-16-06 12:21 PM by AndyTiedye
There has always been some election fraud.
In the past, it tended to cancel out, more or less.

This is different.

The companies that make the voting machinez are all controlled by the Reich.
Regardless of polls that predicted Democratic gains,
we have lost ground every national election since they started installing Diebold Republican Electing (DRE) Machinez
