The one woman was talking about paper ballots and Jerrod Nadler from NY blew her off as if she didn't know what she was talking about. His story was was that paper ballots in NY in some election were easy to defraud. Well duh, Nadler old buddy, you weren't properly prepared to make sure there wasn't fraud. But it can be done and if done correctly paper ballots are the safest way to vote.
What pissed me off is there are hundreds of ordinary democratic activists who know more about this subject than he does. But his attitude was "we are the CONGRESSMEN we know more". They don't and they need to listen to people who do. I hate to say it but we may have to roll over these fools too. They passed that horrible voters rights legislation a few years ago and what good is it. They simply are not very bright or well informed on this issue. So no matter what their intentions are, they are ineffective at getting the job done.
We have to make sure we do not allow them to screw this up for us again. We elected them and we might really like them, but we have to accept that we need to lead them and not the other way around.
