Recently Governor Arnold ‘Conan’ Schwarzenegger worked with legislation that would require a sign to be affixed to every electronic slot machine detailing the odds the user faces when gambling with the machine.
Diebold – a major manufacturer of electronic voting machines markets a successful line of cash counting machinery to the gambling industry. The connections between the manufacturers of touch screen gambling machines and touch screen voting machines cross paths in manufacture, sales and distribution.
Our state governments are dependent upon gambling income and I think it would be appropriate to put a sign on all electronic voting machines detailing the odds the voter faces when voting with the machine.
Even money that your vote will get counted at all.
Black Democrats in some states may not be allowed to vote at all see Secretary of State for details.
White Republicans in some states may receive an automatic return of 1 to 2 – each vote cast counts as two.
There is a fifty percent chance that the votes may be ‘flipped’ and the loser becomes the winner in a photo-finish.
Finally a statement could be appended as to the fact that no paper trail of the vote will be made and that proof of each act of voting in the election will not be provided by the government because the machines belong to them, they make the laws and if you don’t like it why don’t you go live somewhere else?
Perhaps comps for frequent voters could be provided as well.
It is my opinion that we are now seeing the final result of allowing state governments to depend upon gambling as a source of revenue.
