YOU can strike a blow against TOUCH SCREEN MACHINES. . right now! Before Lunch!
NY State Board of elections is holding a meeting at noon today. to decide if they are going to demand that DRE, paperless, touch-screen machines are going to be allowed in NY State.

When I called, I was told that they would "count the emails" and consider them when they went into their meeting

PLEASE EMAIL

info@election.state.ny.org and put into the subject line.. NO DRE machines in NY!


(please spread this email addy and kick this post)

3. You should add (in NY) to your OP title.
Did you cross post this in the NY Forum?

I hope they do abolish them!

6. I'm not saying it's not everyone's problem.

I just was making a suggestion.

And a lot of times they'll try to screen out people who aren't from that state.

Just sayin'.

13. Darn! I just saw this and sent the email even if it was past noon.
This whole voting machine thing is just a bunch of crap. The levers should be kept and each voting place should have paper ballots for those who are handicapped. Problem solved.
