While "fraud" and "elections" are a hot topic CALL CONGRESS about ELECTION FRAUD
people confuse voter fraud (virtually nonexistent)
with election fraud (RAMPANT)
NOW is the time to RESIST further use of computerized voting machines, computerized central tabulators, optical scanners -- anything that requires software &/or hardware where votes are concerned -- this is truly the only hope we have for ever recapturing the House, or Senate, or Presidency or state or local elections. The brickwall we encounter every time we call for a recount is very telling...
The article listed below is a good recap of info. that has been long known...after reading, please call your representatives & senators and tell them:
1)We need to return to using paper ballots to record our votes, followed by precinct based tabulation done by hand counting the paper ballots with witnesses.
2) use this fact to help support your plea: that Germany has made computerized voting UNCONSTITUTIONAL and it has been banned in several European countries

snip...over many decades, our public elections have been privatized and outsourced to a handful of corporations and dozens of private service vendors.
snip...corporations have sold us billions in "proprietary" computerized voting systems. This includes electronic poll books, touchscreen voting machines, optical ballot scanners and central tabulators, Internet voting systems and online vote reporting networks.
snip...Election laws have slowly been altered to facilitate this quiet transition to more "expedient" private control. In most states public oversight has been curtailed or removed entirely, including the ability to witness a full, secure public tally of paper ballots; the international gold standard of democratic elections. In jurisdictions in 12 states, ballots have been eliminated and only the secretly programmed machines remain.
