Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org and VoteTrustUSA.Org

Maybe it’s good; maybe it’s bad but there is very little voting news today. The article from Yolo County, CA is interesting. The article from VA talks about actions that residents can take to ensure they have verifiable elections in the future. The rest is pretty much business as usual….

  • CA: Yolo County – How Yolo Citizens Will Vote in 2006 LINK
  • CT: Voting district changes questioned LINK
  • FL: Election reform provides more opportunity in 2006 LINK
  • IA: Scott County – New voting machines headed to county LINK
  • IN: Vanderburgh County – Precinct changes given the OK LINK
  • NC: Lenoir County – Voting machine decision delayed LINK

      Hey, in an insane asylum only so much can be done and only so much can be expected.

      BTW I disagree with the Absinthe ads here. The artists produce art without the liquid or solids becoming a prime player.

      As to voting, all you can do is vote. All they can do is count as they have been instructed. The rest is really the story of the Matrix. You take the red pill or the other one.

      And the last episode is pending …

      Next I’m going to be working on Arizona bigtime….I’m going to see who can really get on this and get a prosecutor involved.

      Then find out what the hell is going on in Wisconsin….John Gideon: Stay on the ITA like a hot iron on rice…They need to come out and simply say these machines are banned, and if they don’t, we’re going to raise havoc and make them do it.

      Doug … stay away from the Absinthe advertised here … it has been banned as a toxin in many places … and it does not enhance the talent and quality artists endeavor under …

      Ok, ok … I suspect you already know this …

      Brad … you probably need a disclaimer saying that what people advertise or say here is "not the official opinion of the Brad Blog" (including my posts)

      Keep their feet to the fire Brad! I’m hopeful we won’t have to resort to violent revolution to free our beloved country from the fascism of the Bush administration. They took our country in a bloodless coup in 2000 and a fraudulent 2004 "election". Increasingly, our brave men and women in the military are seeing the truth. The revolution will be televised.
