What MY simple little mind can't understand is WHY are there so damn many different ways to vote? I just don't understand why there isn't ONE way to vote, with ONE type of machine or ONE type of form, whatever, for every polling place in the entire USA???? WTF is this shit with electronic machines, pull-lever machines, push-button machines, fill-in-the-blank paper ballots, and every other kind of friggin' device they use?

Why isn't there a STANDARD? "This is a voting machine, and this is how you use it. Everybody uses the same kind of machine and the results are safe and predictable, and honest. Nobody can cheat, or vote twice, or jack with the results, etc." Why the Fuck isn't it done this way all over the country, for all kinds of voting?

Silly me, this just makes sense to me and seems like an honest and predictable way to do something this important. Guess this is why I don't make the big bucks.....
