6. Maybe the Republicans are running a little behind
on this, but it doesn't seem like it is in the mainstream yet for either party. I have emailed my congressman twice with no response, and he is a liberal Dem. Maybe the Dems don't want to look whiney already when there hasn't even been an election yet. I saw a preview of a local news station that will be running a feature this week, and from the blurb it appears that the story will focus on "could a hacker steal the election" rather than could the government steal the election. I think proponents have sucsessfully spun it in this direction, so that when the public is assured that the machines "are not on the internet" they will accept them as a step in the right direction away from chads.
