Did I understand the florida situation right. The counting process it not supervised by representatives of all parties on the ballot?

don't want them just squeezing past for rigged victories and no-one contesting it to check with the printed ballots.

I assure you Wasserman Schultz will be quite happy if D's, specifically her D's, win everyting.

@pratel a fringe or even 3rd party can abuse a broken corrupt system to force a candidate that even within the party was hated

The electronic would be a check

oh

@pratel then all it takes is anyone in the world looking to exploit that and they get to pick the candidate and not the voters

If we're ok with electronic taxes, we should be ok with electronic voting from home

I'm still glad we do vote by mail in Oregon. I love it.

log in with your SSN

done

so physical counting and check against electronic results?

i think i'd be okay with that, there shouldn't be any spoiled ballotts

and shouldn't be any printer errors..

I don't think internet voting will work. Way too many people will mess with it.

Do we have final counts yet on flordia?

Internet voting is a horrible idea. Voting by mail is hard enough to verify.

definitely, internet voting is really retarded.

Taxes are just as important as voting, probably more important to the individual.

Florida is about to start a manual recount

@Coochie coo no. They're starting a recount. There will almost certainly be a 2nd recount too.

we do that online every year

without issue

i bet the recound comes back with dems winning.

unlikely i know

but drama would be fuuun to watch

Vote by mail can be pretty secure.

No, that's what the mess in FL is about.

Ok that's what I thought... my sister is a officially a cray person

Recounts rarely make a difference and almost never with this big a difference.

I wish I had a way of verifying my own vote. (I don't live in florida). How do I know it was recorded correctly?

vote by mail > mail company tosses out mailed in votes from areas that lean in the "wrong" direction

ffs... my dog opened the cabinet. Found where I hid the bully stick I got for her, opened it up and then was hiding as she was chewing on it. lol

:/

The problem is that it's really hard to verify that the letter is sent by the person claiming to have sent it and the chain of custody is necessarily broken.

I think alot of the problem is the person running things down there. After all, every other county than those 2 got it done without issue.

Votes are separated from the voter to maintain secrecy

Which is why mail ballots are so bad for trust purposes.
