3. Sadly- yes. I remember it well and yes- it appears that we are in for a repeat performance in 2012.

Oct 2012

The only thing different this time is that more people are aware of the suppression and disenfranchisement- and the fact that the Romney family now owns a significant number of voting machines. Not that this differs much from the GOP owned companies who owned the rest of the companies manufacturing these machines (and who still do not allow access to source codes for to verify the counts) but at least the Romney story got some media attention- enough to have people on alert. I am not just not that hopeful that the awareness in 2012 will be enough to compensate for the theft if the numbers remain as close as they are today and I am, sorry to say, extremely worried that this will cost us the election once again. I pray that I am being overly cautious and would be happy to have someone talk me off the ledge here!
