election quote of the year

Submitted by mivox on 10 November, 2006 - 2:10pm.

Overheard in a Duval Co., Florida polling place: Why were the majority of voters choosing to stand in line and wait to use "optional" paper ballots, when using a touch-screen voting machine would have been much faster (there was a whole row of touch-screen stations sitting vacant)?

"... those machines be rigged by them Republicans!"

Yes folks, it's not just political nerds like me who've noticed something suspect about black box voting machines. Little old black ladies in Jacksonville, Florida know a rat when they smell one too. ;-)
