8. Go Bev! We're cheering you on in Texas.

We had an election over the weekend on 22 constitutional amendments. Travis County, which includes Austin, uses electronic voting. The poor election official got an earful from me and my SO! She was visibly shaken, and tried to defend electronic voting machines. I decided to go vote and leave her alone. When I was leaving, SHE re-engaged ME, and we had a nice discussion about the pitfalls of having no paper trail. By the time we left, I think we had a new believer!

I'm terribly suspicious of this election, where ALL 22 amendments passed. Makes you say "hmmmmm."

Keep fighting the good fight! We've got your back!
