Florida Governor Charlie Crist would like to do away with touch screen voting machines and replace them with ones that generate a paper trail.
Ensuring the integrity of elections is the cornerstone of any democracy, he said.
“It’s at the very foundation of it all. You go to an ATM machine, you get some kind of a record. You go to the gas station, you get a record.” Crist said. “If there’s a need for a recount, it’s important to have something to count.”
Amen. That’s what it is all about: integrity. Here in Virginia, we have HB2707, which is currently in the P&E subcomittee #2, and SB840, which has passed the Senate. Please contact your legislators and ask them to support these bills.
