Who knows anything about paperless electronic poll books?

By Patricia Axelrod (Page 1 of 1 pages) No comments

Hello all:

My Washoe County (Nevada) is proposing
paperless electronic poll books for the 2008 elections. I don't have the details yet as this proposal will be made tomorrow for county commission
approval.

As one who had to fight to gain access
to Washoe County Poll Books - which where then turned
over for review minus their ballot statements -
paperless electronic poll books look like an
invitation to vote fraud.

I've heard rumors of electronic poll books but this is the first time I've been confronted with this in my own elections.

I'm looking for your input.

"Rob Kall gives readers an important wake up call to the bottom up power that they have to protect their rights, powers, and freedoms. His advice applies to all aspects of life, including politics, economics, journalism, entertainment, and psychology and wellness. Kall's book explains the differences between the top-down leadership approach of dominating, fear based, disconnected authoritarianism and the bottom-up connection consciousness that emphasizes values, justice, fairness, equity, and kindness. This book helps readers see the whole elephant as opposed to the disconnected parts. Kall gives great advice as to intensifying, expanding, prolonging, and deepening connections. With his professional background, Rob Kall is the perfect person to write this book. This is a very well-researched book that includes dozens of insightful interviews with top-notch experts. Kall shows how bottom-up small acts can produce massive results. He emphasizes that since we can't avoid this emerging bottom-up connection revolution, we need to learn how to navigate and embrace it. This bottom-up leadership will result in power to the people. This is a fascinating and insightful book, especially in this new era of digital hunting and gathering."
