Pennsylvania: The Worst Place to Vote in America

Okay, about Pennsylvania, which Black Box Voting has dubbed "the worst place to vote in America"

Most locations in Pennsylvania have no ballots: Strike one.

Pennsylvania fails to recognize that its own citizens have a right to oversee their own government, especially the elections that control who takes office: Strike two.

Pennsylvania has some good people, like former election official V. Kurt  ellman, who has shown the intellectual honesty to do his homework, think independently, and -- most difficult for many people -- Bellman has been willing to rethink his positions from time to time. We often disagree, but it is always an informative discussion.

Pennsylvania has some awesome, creative, and tenacious citizens fighting for voting rights, like Alan Brau, who helped expose the improper use of the Advanced Voting Systems WinVote, and Mary Ann Gould, who has done an extraordinary job of communicating the issues to the public.

But Pennsylvania is still the worst place to vote in America.

Oh-- and did I mention, it also has a significant "Moonshine Elections" component. It's not often that states combine mafia connections with moonshine politics, but that's Pennsylvania. For more about Moonshine Elections, see these reports:

I don't think you'll find many states that actually top Pennsylvania in citizen-unfriendly elections. Nominate some if you dare, but I think I'll be able to show you that Pennsylvania has them beat.
