In an interview by Mary Ann Gould on “Voice of the Voters” last night Congressman Dennis Kucinich said, “There is a question of validity of an election. People have to know their vote counts and is counted. People cannot be guaranteed that with the present DRE system.” Meanwhile another overall election failure has been reported by the Mississippi media. The Kentucky Attorney General has told the Secretary of State that doing nothing is not an option as he sends letters to Hart Intercivic and Diebold and demands they do the same for his state as they are required to do for California. And, of course, the rhetoric is building in California.
