Voting Drops 83 Percent In All-Digital Election

For the first time ever, Oahu residents had to use their phones or computers to vote with some surprising results. 7,300 people voted this year, compared to 44,000 people the previous year, a drop of about 83 percent. "It is disappointing, compared to two years ago. This is the first time there is no paper ballot to speak of. So again, this is a huge change and I know that, and given the budget, this is a best that we could do," said Joan Manke of the city Neighborhood Commission. She added that voters obviously did not know about or did not embrace the changes.

The voting machines were rigged in many states and gave Bush the election.

Yeah, that's why the Republicans won in a landslide again in 2008. The system is totally rigged. You so smart.
