Connecticut follows MOVE Act, avoids flaws – Others follow the money

By Luther Weeks on October 15, 2010

We offer our complements to Secretary Bysiewicz, the Town Clerks, Legislators who supported the MOVE Act, Connecticut, the many other states and officials who are implementing the MOVE Act with integrity.

Who are you going to believe? Scientists or Vendors?

By Luther Weeks on July 21, 2010

“Enter online voting vendors looking to break into the market on the backs of these two groups. They ride in to save the day with big promises and high-tech solutions. Security becomes little more than sale pitch, like shiny chrome or electronic gadgetry in a new car. ‘You want security – we got security.’…Vendors need to stand in the corner with bankers and oil companies. Just whose elections are these anyway?”

By Luther Weeks on May 24, 2010

“Rather than experimenting with less secure, less auditable methods of voting, I hope that states will use the 2010 election cycle to confirm how much more convenient, accessible and secure the Move Act, which I was otherwise pleased to support, makes military and overseas voting.”

Revolving door in PA swings toward Internet Voting

By Luther Weeks on May 20, 2010

Damn the science; Damn the integrity; If it feels good do it!

By Luther Weeks on May 10, 2010

The troops are supposed to be fighting for Democracy, our right to speak freely and even to protest wars if we choose. So, why do we deny or mislead them into compromising their voting anonymity? Compromising our right that everyone’s vote be anonymous?
