"Multiple indications of vote fraud are beginning to pop up regarding the New Hampshire primary elections. Roughly 80% of New Hampshire precincts use Diebold machines, while the remaining 20% are hand counted. A Black Box Voting contributor has compiled a chart of results from hand counted precincts vs. results from machine counted precincts. In machine counted precincts, Clinton beat Obama by almost 5%. In hand counted precincts, Obama beat Clinton by over 4%, which closely matches the scientific polls that were conducted leading up to the election. Another issue is the Republican results from Sutton precinct. The final results showed Ron Paul with 0 votes in Sutton. The next day a Ron Paul supporter came forward claiming that both she and several of her family members had voted for Ron Paul in Sutton. Black Box Voting reports that after being asked about the discrepancy Sutton officials decided that Ron Paul actually received 31 votes in Sutton, but they were left off of the tally sheet due to 'human error.'"

I think everyone in the country should have to go to Washington, D.C. to vote by dropping a pebble in a box for their candidate of choice. Can't be much worse than what we have right now.

That is pretty cool! I'd love to see them do that today, especially when one candidate starts losing by a landslide and still has to thank the voters, not to mention something like our mayoral election last November where the vote went back and forth between the mayor and the challenger with the challenger finally winning.
