A Special Election Day Thanks

Win or lose, there is one person who I think deserves a special Election Day thank-you from all of us.



That person is Bev Harris.



Bev Harris has been at the forefront of the movement to increase awareness of the flaws inherent in electronic voting machines. Without her, all those Florida voters who have been claiming that they voted Democratic down the line but the machine showed they voted Republican wouldn't have been aware that the machine could make a mistake, and wouldn't have spoken out.



Bev Harris has put her business, her reputation, and some would say her life on the line to expose the many ways these voting machines can be hacked, or worse, rigged in advance, to produce a particular result; and to expose the ties that bind the companies that make the machines and their software to the Republican party.



Win or lose tonight, Bev, we all owe you a debt of gratitude. You are a true American hero, and we thank you.
