WaPo: "How to steal an election"

Surprised to see this in WaPo since they wouldn't touch Mark Crispin Miller's book...

We'll wait to read his book before making a judgment about that. But Freeman has assembled comparisons that suggest Americans protect their vices more than they guard their rights, according to data he presented at an October meeting of the American Statistical Association in Philadelphia.

People like Dan Froomkin aren't directly affiliated with the newspaper.

Froomkin explains this in his chats from time to time that washingtonpost.com exclusive content is actually subcontracted out.
