Boy, that makes me REALLY comfortable with electronic voting machines.

That darn Al Gore, misusing his internet for his own evil purposes. I have no doubt Bill Steigelmeier (sic? I really don't care if so) is convinced Gore lost on purpose as part of a play by his Ivy League NWO buddies to gain control of the voting process.

Post all other conspiracy theories here. PP, how about a t-shirt for the best one?

I believe it was reported because they figured out how to actually do it - and transparently, at that.

Fortunately the "voting machines" here in South Dakota are nothing more than a very fancy printer.
You insert the paper ballot, mark your choses using a varity of assistive devices, (including one which makes the 9pt print large enough to read easily), push mark your ballot which fills in the circles on your ballot. You can check it over(providing that you can read print that small) before you put the same paper ballot that everyone else uses into the ballot box.
I recommend an absentee ballot for everyone who uses bifocals this fall!!

No need to worry.

For the 2004 Presidential election, the Diebold CEO said:

I am committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to Senator Kerry.

Wha...He didn't say that? What did he say?

"I am committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president."

In a Bush fundraising letter.

Walden O'Dell ran the Ohio-based Diebold company until after the 2004 elections. He also raised $100,000 for Bush and wrote the above words in a fundraising letter to Bush supporters.

Really nothing to worry about here. Go invade doctor's offices and bedrooms. There are more important things going on there.

A note from Benedict Ar... Sorry. A note from Stan Adelstein why he thinks you should vote Democrat this year.

(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...
