15. No, of course not, for reasons already explained. What IS needed
though are state laws with MUCH more teeth -- or (and I am in favor of this) a Constitutional Amendment granting the Right to Vote.

Again and again the courts are throwing out cases that they shouldn't. Again and again those who ARE found guilty of vote tampering or outright fraud get not much more than a slap on the wrist. So look to your state laws -- I honestly believe that's the NEXT thing we all need to concern ourselves with (and maybe we shouldn't make it "next" but concomitant since we haven't solved the electronic voting issue yet).
