Is our Congress doing enough to protect our voting and elections system?
A few days ago, it was reported that the Congress voted down money that would help protect our votes. Obviously, some do not take it very seriously.
But, for most citizens, it is a very serious matter, that they maintain the integrity in our voting system.
At this time, there is no more important issue than preserving our right to vote and to have our votes tallied honestly and fairly. We must have faith, that in a democracy, the people have the potential to govern themselves and to count votes fairly.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

"Mankind naturally and generally love to be flatter'd: Whatever sooths our Pride, and tends to exalt our Species above the rest of the Creation, we are pleas'd with and easily believe, when ungrateful Truths shall be with the utmost Indignation rejected. "What! bring ourselves down to an Equality with the Beasts of the Field! with the meanest part of the Creation! 'Tis insufferable!" But, (to use a Piece of common Sense) our Geese are but Geese tho' we may think 'em Swans; and Truth will be Truth tho' it sometimes prove mortifying and distasteful."
Action, at least in social media, is in comparatively more scant supply - perhaps merely for the moment.
