24. Ohio is rather well represented in this debate....

32. Not sure if anyone else did have this problem...
The audio seemed to disappear towards the end of the C-Span segment. I plugged in my stereo and cranked up the volume to ear-splitting level and I could hear it.... this might have just been the case in the colonies mind.

28. I watched it.
And I very much enjoyed Marcy Kaptur, D-Ohio.

Get your local election workers on board, especially the ones who have been doing it for years and years. Many of them are noticing something smells bad about these machines.

Don't be a "conspiracy theorist." Be a conspiracy breaker...

29. As Bev Harris said, " Scrutiny has NOTHING to do with conspiracy"
If anyone tries to cut you off at the pass, remind them of this fact.

If they continue, ask them why they are afraid of implementing fair voting standards, which will ONLY be accomplished by having a paper ballot, (and in my opionion not having electronic voting of any kind).

Many people want to disqualify the truth by calling it conspiracy, scrutiny is mandatory in any doubtful procedures or events taking place.

And this is a the biggest no-brainer of them all.

30. I saw Russ Holt
finally! Damn, that took long enough, eh? I am so thankful for his bill. However, the man is a HORRIBLE speaker...but he DID get the important information out there. Marcy Kaptur was excellent, as usual. I'm anxious to see where this goes. Paper trail, paper trail, paper trail.....they said it...now, let's see what happens. :bounce:

33. Anyone capture this segment?
We'd like to put this clip online for others to watch. Did anyone capture the segment and will share it with verified voting?

36. I was aware of the Swarthmore effort
but had not seen that page. Interesting. This is becoming an interesting "ground war". Thanks Gristy.
