“American history is littered with vote fraud — but rather
than learning from our shameful past and cleaning up the
system, we have allowed the problem to grow even worse.
If the last two elections have taught us anything, it is this:
The single greatest threat to our democracy is the insecurity
of our voting system. If people lose faith that their votes are
accurately and faithfully recorded, they will abandon the ballot
box. Nothing less is at stake here than the entire idea of a
government by the people.”
“Voting”, as Thomas Paine said,
”is the right upon which
all other rights depend.”
Unless we ensure that right,
everything else we hold dear
is in jeopardy.”
edy note: I give you the summation – for non-believers,
or believers, wanting the documented details of
“everything we hold dear” being in stolen:
