Don't Let A Computer Eat Your Vote

Back when I first started voting in DuPage County, after I asked for a Democratic primary ballot, I was told, "I don't think we have any Democratic ballots."

Eventually a competent person found the Democratic ballots, but I shudder to think of the electoral damage that election judge could do with computerized votes, e.g., "My grandson always says you should restart the computer when you run into problems."

Today is the US nationwide "Computer Ate My Vote Day," with rallies across the country to raise awareness of the dangers of paperless electronic voting and the need for election integrity. Click below to find out what you can do to protect your vote.
