Pushing Buttons

Stick a fork in e-voting?

Even as the worst political junkies among us (hello, my name is Angela G. and...) stay up overnight jonesing for those last few Senate results, Daily Kos has a great post about perhaps the biggest loser in Election 2006: electronic voting. With a fifty-state rout underway, we now have a chance to step back and address questions about vote verifiability and machine security for bipartisan issues. That's precisely how the questions should have been addressed all along. So what do you think? John Kerry and George Allen, co-chairing a bipartisan commission? Kerry and Kenneth Blackwell perhaps? The dream-team assembly starts now -- a Hot Stove League that matters.
