Then on what grounds would you be able to judge if your congressperson should be reelected or not?
Regardless of any possible benefits this is a terrible, terrible idea. A legitimate public financing system would be more of a step in the right direction.
Why is electronic voting required for using the popular vote? It seems to me just about every election in the world other than the US Presidential election would say otherwise.
Actually, the underlined text in the summary is called a link. Click it and you will see what is called TFA. It actually explains some of the potential advantages of the silicon core.
I don't. He did a lot for Alaska only because he was the senate King of Pork barrel spending. He did little good for the country as a whole. Good riddance.
Funny, but not really realistic. Alaskan's were about ready to drop Stevens even before the guilty verdicts. His popularity has nowhere to go but down for the next 8 days.
I understand there are a lot of gray areas, and I wasn't talking about those. If a ballot has clear markings in more than one candidate where only one vote is allowed then the ballot should be considered invalid.
I'm just talking about the case where there is an otherwise clean ballot with one candidate's box filled in. I think it would be unconscionable to throw that ballot out just because they filled in the box instead of using an X or a check.
The only real documented fraud going on now is ACORN.
Incorrect. First of all we are talking about is registration fraud, which should be distinguished from vote fraud. When Mickey Mouse shows up to vote then it is vote fraud. Until then the only one getting screwed is ACORN who payed for someone to collect those garbage registrations.
Secondly, ACORN is not the only documented registration fraud going on.
What exactly is the point of a rule such as votes will only count if their are two intersecting line segments within the box? How is it reasonable when ballots with one candidate unambiguously selected are thrown out because the boxes are filled in instead of checked.
Vote by mail has numerous advantages but it also forces you to dispense with the notion of a private ballot which is not something I am all that comfortable with.

Actually, to be pedantic s/foo/bar/ is from ed, which of course vi was based on.
I hope the TSA isn't reading this. Holiday travel is bad enough without them confiscating our gifts.
"Laceration-Free Packaging" as far as that cursed clamshell packaging goes. I hate that crap, good riddance.

The ammonia could probably be waste from reclamation of water from urine.
Zombies are already dead. You can't rekill them.
Welcome to slashdot, Senator Craig.
Yeah, my coworker from Germany can't get over the fact that we still use checks in America. He says no one ever uses them in Europe.
Of course not, you're off by an order of magnitude. What's your point?

The guy sounds like a Florida voter to me. Why shouldn't she have been confused when he responds with a non-sequitor.
Thing is, I don't think any of this is something that couldn't already be done with the original surface technology.
Yeah, but you don't need this technology to do that. The original surface interface already supports that.
Yeah. Neat trick but who's going to use it?

You're right. That's a good point, he did still get the money for his constituents.
I don't. He did a lot for Alaska only because he was the senate King of Pork barrel spending. He did little good for the country as a whole. Good riddance.

Steven's is not someone inclined to do the right thing. He promised to resign if his precious Bridge to Nowhere was taken away, whatever came of that?

I'm afraid it does. I'm talking about the requirement to mark your ballot in privacy away from anyone who may be trying to influence your vote.
Their are plenty of small media players out there for Linux. I would not classify Amarok as one of them.
