The unintended consequence of a (paper trail) mandate could diminish, rather than enhance, voter confidence.

California registrars are in the unenviable position of having the responsibility to conduct an election on June 6, but no authority to purchase a certified system.

Democracy is not a neat process, it is a complicated process. We are seeing a lot of that 'third world country' angst in our country, with a lot of loss of confidence and concerns from the 2000 election. And I would hate to think we will end up in that same scenario of possibly feeling like we are a third world country and no one trusts the government to count the votes right.

You can only push a person so far before you have to deal with the consequences, make your choices wisely for you never know when that day will come! Mistaking my kindness for weaknesses is a HUGE mistake. Just as no one is indispensable, no one is invincible either! I am not a game player, however if I must...I will win @ least for myself & @ this point that's who I care about, aw; seems like you [email protected]#cked yourself!

The only stuff we looked at were incidents for which there are a paper trail ... (and) everything we looked up was full of lies. (Winfrey said) the belief this book is changing the lives of people trumps the fact that maybe the story is a fake. You would expect somebody in her position would take the ethical stand.

Refuse to give up, your mistakes don't define you
They don't dictate where you're headed, they remind you
