19. PAPER BALLOTS COUNTED BY HUMAN BEINGS.
Sun Aug 5, 2018, 03:39 PM
Aug 2018

We should be demanding this now. No more electronic touch screens. No more running paper ballots through black box tabulators. Why isn't dem leadership calling for this? It should be a national movement. Instead, we read story after story about how Trump is doing nothing & the GOP controlled Congress is doing nothing. My bad, the GOP Congress is doing something. They are all visiting Russia right before this critical election!

If we don't gain control of at least on chamber of Congress in November, we are so fucked.
