25. Unlike you, I have read many fixes listed in DETAIL on DU.
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 08:37 PM by bvar22
Most of the fixes focused on these areas:

1)A Voter Verified Paper Ballot (this even has a DU acronym VVPB) is issued to each voter which is then deposited in a locked box which remains secure until the vote is certified. If a recount is necessary or requested, the Paper Ballots are used.

2)A NATIONWIDE standard and ballot to be used in conjunction with #1

3) Non-partisan Election Commissions (NO Campaign Manager/Sec of State)

Of course, none of this will go anywhere without the Democratic Party Leadership actually assuming a leadership role.
Many, many DUers have been involved in petitions and letter writing campaigns prior to 2004 lobbying the Party Leadership to address this issue.

If YOU would like to actually DO SOMETHING instead of bitch, YOU organize a letter writing campaign or petition to the Dem Leadership to address the issue.

BTW: I don't think it is necessary to offer a FIX in order to identify something is BROKEN and demand to have it fixed. Identifying the PROBLEM IS THE first step TO FIXING THE PROBLEM.
When you call the PLUMBER to report your toilet is broken, does HE demand that you offer a plan to fix it?
