if it uses these infernal machines. That's common sense. We shouldn't have to pay for a recount just to feel that the election was fairly counted. If we had a democracy in the US we would have been doing this already from the very beginning. The only reason we don't audit is because we've turned the vote-counting over to private corporations who can count the votes and manipulate them as well at their own discretion. Probably most mistakes in this case are a result of the crappy machines used but the only way to find out is to recount. These companies own our democracy.
