(NOTE FROM BRAD: I’ve asked John to post VotersUnite.org’s<\/a> excellent “Daily Voting News”, a comprehensive list of the day’s major election and voting related stories, directly on BRAD BLOG<\/a> each day. He’s agreed to do so. And today’s busy Election Day seems a great day to start. The articles that John chooses to include in the DVN are not necessarily opinions that we agree with, but rather, they’re meant as a comprehensive listing of the each day’s major Voting-related news, no matter which side of the political aisle they may fall on. I’d like to thank both John and Ellen Theissen, of VotersUnite.org<\/a> for agreeing to share the listings each day with BRAD BLOG<\/a> readers!)<\/i><\/p>\n

Today has been a normally busy election day. There have been spotty problems reported in the media all over the country. Of course, almost every machine failure\/error has been blamed on the voter or poll worker…<\/p>\n
