Hi. Life is dandy, but tiring.
Let's get to the point, shall we?
If you have a half an hour to kill, or don't have the time, but are procrastinating, go to the following website and watch the documentary. It's on voting and elections and how easy it is to manipulate machines.
http://www.votergate.tv/ Then I think you should write to your Senators...California's reps are Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer, urging them to vote in favor of S.450
This bill will require that all voting machines print a voter verified paper receipt so that if need be, a recount is possible (unlike Florida '04). (It entails a lot more...look it up if you're curious... www.congress.org)
Thanks!
