Debating the broken system won't fix it. We need to start taking some action to demand paper ballots, hand-counted at the precincts. No capital investment is necessary. I'm sure Paulites would be available to do the counting. A good start would be to flood our elected "representatives" and our local media with these demands. This web site makes it quite easy:

"I'm sure Paulites would be available to do the counting." Sorry, but I don't trust "Paulites". A lot of your writers and thinkers have shown a clear prediliction for the idea that the people are "sheeple" and that they are too ignorant to understand reality or choose what they want, and I wouldn't put it beyond you to rig the vote to fall your way.
 If we do hand counting, it needs to be open, with all parties there.

Logical, I love ya, but you can be a pain in the posterior. Of course all parties would be present. In Canada, they call them "scrutineers". I should have said "help with (the chore of) counting".
