Posted on December 31, 2008 by iwilder

Remember in 2000, when the Supreme Court decided in Bush v. Gore that while Americans have a right to vote, they did not necessarily have the right to have their vote counted?

KW: This is a very sad and dramatic story about government mismanagement.

Monkeywrenching with Minnie the Cat

Posted on December 10, 2008 by iwilder

Blogwriters note: The crux of this story is only a problem when a third party has automatic ballot access.
