We have those damned electronic voting machines in Maryland, the ones
that do not provide any printed record of your vote.

I asked the polling "referee" why I should trust these machines to
produce an honest count, and she said, "Well, I feel secure about
them."

To which I responded, "What are your credentials? Who are you? Why
should I trust you?" She really had no answers that were satisfactory.
Why would you become confrontational with someone who has no decision
making authority? She is a very nice volunteer, who was laughing at
you as soon as you walked away. Even if she agrees with your
assessment, she was laughing at your behavior.


No, she wasn't, because at least five other people around me were asking
her the same questions.


Then she laughed at all of you.

This reminds me of the old feeble minded people yelling at the clerk at
the airline ticket desk when the flight is canceled due to bad weather.


Or at the waitress because the kitchen is backed up. And then she spits in
their food.

I wonder if the poll worker unplugged Harry's machine before it could post.
