On the subject of audits in Utah – The lieutenant governor’s office will seek expert advice on the matter this summer and add the requirement administratively, said spokesman Joe Demma. “We could just randomly take 10 or 15 machines and audit the paper trail, but what we want are professional guidelines,” Demma said. “We’re going to look for professionals to set some guidelines for what would qualify as an accurate statistical model.” How about Hawaii or New Mexico as examples of good audit laws?…

      Google has tons of Britney nude links but this one posted earlier by nolie with election fraud and people asking for an investigation into the 04 stolen election did not get posted. Nolie posted it this morning:

      In the meantime, two attack pieces against her were linked in the google alerts.

      So why wasn’t this one?

      Read it? And then tell us if this is part of their blackout.

      Paper ballots would be nice but the electronic voting machines gives these guys the “high tech” Sharper Image store feel they crave to keep up with the Joneses in other states

      Well, random audits are the best thing I’ve heard yet as far as verifying anything, but considering they left the paper trail out of the laws governing a recount, does that mean they will have to change the law?

      Anyone?

      Are we going to have some public debate this time involving some of that good old “noisy democracy” involving some of the local computer professionals, or require the local media to ignore the process again and cast doubt on it.

      Can we please have an open and honest debate about this that everybody feels comfortable with and agrees on! That should be easy to do!

      Time is running out, and we have to start now.
