Election night (and the days following) should be fun when every close state is litigated and @#$@ like this comes up.

You mean they can’t “take the day off” to vote as many times as they can get away with?

Usfolk have become second class citizens — only one vote if we can to cast it.

They aren’t stealing the election — gummint “officials” at all levels are giving it away.

Time magazine this week had an article on the myriad ways election machines and procedures/rules vary from state to state, leading to inevitable SNAFUs.

I don’t know why we can’t change the Constitution if needed and create national standard ballot formats, procedures and machines so we’re all on the same page.

Based on what I got from Vickie Williams, at the VA Board of Elections, in an e-mail last week they had 42 of the “bad forms”. If that number is right and the one SJS quotes above is right, then 36 of them have been resolved.

Still leaves 6 and the hubris of the State of VA to think they can ignore federal law.

And I’m left wondering – what is the truth these days when it comes to politics and elections.
