This electronic voting crap is NOT A GOOD THING.

Here in Philadelphia, just as in Chicago, we take our civic
responsibilities seriously: in most elections, we manage well
over 100% voter participation, largely because the dead vote in
great numbers.  In fact, some of them vote several times for the
same candidate.

Most of these dead people were planted a long time ago (we don't
update the voter rolls very often).  And very few of them will be
able to understand this new-fangled technology.

Where, oh where, has respect for tradition gone?

Not a good thing.  Not at all.
