At the Core of Democracy: Electronic Voting Machines

Great resources linked from this page. There is no time to waste!

Introduction

Democracy today is at risk by the very instrument which seeks to uphold it. Electronic voting machines with meager security and significant technical flaws threaten to undermine our voting rights and thus the reliability of the election process. Without federal review and software testing, these voting machines are being marketed by companies and bought by states at an alarming rate. We cannot wait for Congress to pass legislation to address this danger. We, the people, must take action NOW to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the upcoming 2004 election!

I, Dennis Kucinich, have created this website to educate the American public about the dangers of current electronic voting machines, and to empower and enable individuals to take preventive action in their communities by taking inventory of their local County Election Board's voting equipment.

As citizens of the United States of America, we are fortunate to have a voting system that is designed to uphold democracy as the bedrock of our society. Although not flawless, this system serves to deliver our political representatives through a process aimed at creating a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. This type of government is essential to our democracy and, for the sake of the public interest, it must be preserved.

Anyone concerned about this should vote only by absentee ballot. That's the only way to have a paper trail right now.

Make sure you tell this to everyone you speak to about politics (Repbulican AND Democratic -- all should be concerned).

In my district here, we have no choice.....it is all absentee ballots. Won't that throw them for a loop. Not only will there be a papertrail, but it also will make it impossible for the media (Bush's cousin) to call the election. They will have to wait until all the absentee ballots are in. Even exit polls will be way off! This would be fun. Keep posting this every week, to help get the message out! And tell all of your friends. Finally beginning to feel good about this election....just a wee bit of my old hippy days shining through!

Here in Washington State we have a great candidate for Secretary of State.
