Best of Black Box? 
Votes: 2

Posted on Thursday, June 2, 2005 - 3:02 pm:   

From Daily Kos - by politology.us:

unfortunately, ohio showed us that even spot-checking rules would be abused. you're supposed to pick a random representative sample totalling 1% (or whatever) of the vote. So rather than random, they cherry-picked ballots totalling 1%. We just didn't have the strength to put a stop to it.

BINGO! Another one who "gets it"!
 

The public must be able to see and authenticate these four essential steps for an election to be public, democratic, and valid: (1) Who can vote (voter list); (2) Who did vote (3) The original count; (4) Chain of custody.
