I've been thinking about the upcoming election, and about the terrifying implications of a second W. term, and about growing fears of election tampering (see, for example, here,
here, and here), fears which gain credibility in light of comments by big-money administration supporter Walden O'Dell, CEO of Diebold - the predominant manufacturer of electronic voting machines. Oh, and here's a great piece on the influence of Ohio on any presidential election, and why that makes O'Dell's comments even more ominous. Anyway, it got me musing: Wouldn't it be great if The Carter Center offered to lend us a team of International Election Monitors to oversee the voting process this November?
