“Florida needs to demonstrate that it is a functioning democracy by getting to the bottom of the problem in the District 13 Congressional Race in Sarasota County. Republican Vern Buchanan now leads Christine Jennings by only 369 votes. But voter complaints and anomalous statistics raise the question: did the voters decide this election, or did software or hardware errors tip the result in favor of a candidate who would otherwise have lost?” David Dill “Is Florida Ready for Democracy?” on HuffPo….

      Brad or John:

      Did this get lost in the information overload of the last few months. Dennis Kucinich speaks here about HR6200.

      I would prefer it included the federal level congressional races as well, but Dennis calls for “hand counted” paper “ballots”, (not trails), to be “posted on the door of the precinct”!

      Isn’t this bill closest to what we’ve been fighting for!
