(5,210 posts)46. I have never understood why the Democrats haven't been more
pro-active on this either.
Through all the years I've studied this issue -- since about 2003 or so -- I've been unpleasantly surprised at how Dems just. aren't. that. interested.
ETA: It's hard to even get Dems to BELIEVE there are/were election problems. Instead they want to tell you: Shhh, that kind of talk suppresses votes. Bullshit, I say. THAT is likely a talking point from the manufacturers.
I know in my heart that those outrageous wins in Virginia last year were due largely to the huge turnout BUT ALSO BECAUSE they switched to paper ballots.
