(71 posts)I don't care too much over who said what on the internet, and who talked to who about synchronizing their message. As my father put it, "We have the right to free speech and we have the right to assemble. If you don't like what someone is saying and who they are hanging out with, oh well. I mean, I put up with you and your high school friends." If people become aware of how unreliable a source of information the internet is, maybe they will stop putting so much stock into it.
But when it comes down to us (the people of the United States of America) not being able to audit our election results openly and without prejudice than how can we guarantee that any results are reliable. This is an issue that has weighed heavily on my mind since 2000.
I desperately hope that we (the people of the United States of America) can get concrete evidence of the reliability and accuracy (or lack thereof) of our voting system. Any evidence, credible or not, that has more people question our election process is welcomed in my opinion. I feel that validity of our voting mechanism is paramount to the future success of our democracy.
