2. Bev, you're braking my heart.
I guess I'll have to buy the book or wait for future chapters to come out.

I thought we HAD the robgeorgia file? Have we had a programing specialist take a look at it to see what it does? Last time I asked you told me to wait for the book, it would all be in there.

You have me absolutely convinced about the need for hard-copy voting records (though I disagree that the machines are any more prone to tampering than other systems we've used historically). AND you've convinced me that dramatically insufficient security protocols were in place by the companies in question.

BUT have we actually shown any evidence that someone was elected with these machines who should have lost? Not speculation, or interesting numbers vs. polls, or the possibility that someone COULD have cheated (that's been done with the older systems as well). Some reason to believe that the books were actually cooked. This is red meat here and I've got to have a bite.
