For the record, you're quoting from someone in the comment section on that story, not me. It's not my quote. The Dems only had "control of both houses of Congress" for about 4 months (actually less, in legislative days).

That said, neither they nor the Republicans have made any real efforts at reform of the privatized, unoverseeable e-tabulation system we use in this country.

No paper trail. No accountability. No recount possibility. Easily hackable for about $30 in Radio Shack parts, $80 if you want wireless. Pull the lever, look for three lemons.
