1. And good for him
This bill would give bush (as the president) the authority to appoint 4 people to supervise and verify the vote in the different sections of the country. THEY would have the last word on the tally of the vote, machinery etc. Once the democrats read the bill they would have to be stupid to support it.

This has been REMOVED!
(9) PROHIBITION OF USE OF UNDISCLOSED SOFTWARE IN VOTING SYSTEMS- No voting system used in an election for Federal office shall at any time contain or use any software not certified by the State for use in the election or any software undisclosed to the State in the certification process. The appropriate election official shall disclose, in electronic form, the source code, object code, and executable representation of the voting system software and firmware to the Commission, including ballot programming files, and the Commission shall make that source code, object code, executable representation, and ballot programming files available for inspection promptly upon request to any person.

This has been ADDED!
(D) REQUIREMENTS FOR NONDISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS- A nondisclosure agreement entered into with respect to an election-dedicated voting system technology meets the requirements of this subparagraph if the agreement
