| | A new year is coming
an election year
but
will the Election be Legal and fair?
Do we have real elections anymore? Did we EVER have real elections..? the past two are really makking me wonder.
How could we not be talking about this issue and working on it? So
curios. Let me tell you - as hard as so many of us are working for
Obama, Hucklebee, Cinton, etc etc... what if its basically a sham
election?
We realy need to rise as a nation and ask questions about electoral
proceedures, count, paper vs electronic, the Black and Latino Vote,
regoinal differences. Last year when I voted for Govenor of Ma, in
Dochester the voting was done in an open room, on paper ballots, with
police officers looking over our shoulders at our votes as we hand fed
them into a crank machine. Primitive paper polling. I was so very
surprised, and wondered where the ballot box was going to go, and how
the election could really possibly be ensured legal
(at all, or ever...its sooo dependant on if you trust the system and
the people entrusted with administering the system locally, regionally,
statewide country wide, globally... it boggles the mind. too much. So
lets focus locally: what can we do but ASK THESE QUESTIONS of our local
legfislators and get involved, work at Polling places, meditate and
pray. one never knows.
