Big time defense contractor United Technologies Corp. (UTC) made public today an unsolicited $3-billion bid for Diebold. According to the NY Times, UTC initially made the $3 billion offer in private on Friday. The bid is $40 a share in cash, or a 66 percent premium over Diebold's Friday closing price of $24.12.

Republic vs. Democracy by Mark E. Smith Do you think we have a democratic form of government? Think again! When progressives call for democracy, the response from regressives is often that we do not have a democracy, we have a republic. A republic, we're told, is a representative form of democracy, so many people think that we do at least have a type of democracy. We do not. |

* Link to a very important website for ongoing information, descriptions of hacks by computer scientists, open records request data from elections and supporting documentation showing election irregularities from around the country:
* Consider asking your state Attorney General to file litigation against electronic voting machine vendors for refunds for the costs of electronic voting equipment . Citizens and states should be demanding refunds on this proven insecure equipment which cannot be made safe and reliable for democratic elections. |

Why Paper Trails Won't Work as Ballot of Record Paper Ballots, hand counted, is the only answer. Anything less in an invitation to fraud. Elections will be a contest of which side can defraud the other more efficiently until we go back to paper ballots, hand counted. |

Is this a perfect system? No. But as one of our foremost knowledgeable members, Bev Harris has said, elections conducted in this manner have perhaps five or six "attack vectors", whereas those conducted with electronic equipment have about 50 or 60. Many of the expert researchers, journalists, computer programmers and security engineers, mathematicians and statisticians who have been studying this critical issue have come to the same conclusion, and we stand with them: PAPER BALLOTS, HAND-COUNTED in PUBLIC VIEW. Will we ever see this happen? Maybe not. Is it an uphill battle? Probably. But we will accept nothing less as a "repair" or "temporary fix" to our election systems."

The Coalition for Visible Ballots is a non-partisan, grassroots movement of unprecedented unity on a single issue. That issue is very simple: Invisible ballots are a bad idea. These organizations and individuals are united on the proposition that "We at the Coalition for Visible Ballots believe that the only way to restore fair and honest elections to our country is to set aside ALL machines, including electronic of any type, touchscreen, optical scan counters--and use PAPER BALLOTS, HAND-COUNTED IN PUBLIC VIEW. |
