Iowa Voters

I’m going on spring break, but I’ll leave a reading list for you.

To keep up with the news visit votetrustusa or blackboxvoting.

To learn some good ideas on how voting machines can be tested, see the pdf on test ballots I recommended before.

To play with a fraudulent voting machine go here.

So see a video on the sensibility of using paper to record votes, go here.

During break you have time to read the rather short federal bill HR 550 that addresses paper trails, audits, and secret source codes.

You can look at the Iowa Code regarding voting machines at this page, and send me your ideas on how to modernize it for the digital age.

Once your reading is complete, you can prepare to meet your Congressman or Senator when they are around the state over the next two weeks. And plan to attend your political party district convention later this month to lobby auditors and legislators for trustworthy elections in Iowa.

The next post will be after Easter when we will report on how some ambitious Iowans talked Rep Jim Leach into co-sponsoring HR 550 last week when they met in Washington.
