I’ve read that the first priority the democrats may have once elected will be to boost minimum wage.
If so, fine, but they better make security & accountability in the voting system their next priority – and not stop until the task is completed promptly and properly.
This Diebold system is pathetically implemented and lacks credibility in it’s design. The most critical component in the political process – an accurate vote count – needs to be assured for all.
Not fixing this puts the U.S. on the same level as other countries who need 3rd party observation for their elections. We should be leading the way on Democracy, right?
