Thanks all, I was thinking this would be more a Libtech question than a cpunks one ;-)
I confess, editor asked me to do the topic, but I'm taking it on the basis that 1) more skepticism about voting the better, since voting sucks; 2) democracy sucks, and basically my strategy is becoming to write an article such that I can add to the tweets promoting it a link to a blog post or some such with more radical material like this one against democracy altogether: https://georgiebc.wordpress.com/2012/11/05/the-problems-with-democracy-2/ But still! If you have something creative or useful to say about e-voting hacks, scandals, etc., please do chime in before this thread meets the dustbin of history. There's the case of the Karl Rove IT guy, present for many e-voting scandals, who died in the suspicious plane crash right before testifying: http://www.democracynow.org/2008/12/22/republican_it_specialist_dies_in_plane On 04/08/2015 05:39 PM, grarpamp wrote: > On Wed, Apr 8, 2015 at 6:21 PM, Douglas Lucas <[email protected]> wrote: >> Finally...in honor of all elections, to use a corporate term: blue-sky >> thinking.
