I still very much support the traditional Democratic Party, the party which gave the country Social Security and Medicare, the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts. Some of these were supported by old-fashioned patriotic Republicans. Hooray for them all!
But now I have cause to wonder whether either party cares about the vote. With evidence of voting irregularities, glitches, and other assorted dirty tricks on the part of Republicans in 2014, the Democratic Party is silent. Yet they still are asking for money. It's understandable. And I'm not against asking for money. But asking for money and at the same time ignoring the serious credibility problem of our elections is simply unwise.
We the people must let our legislators know that we care about the vote, we want to vote, and we demand that our vote be counting in a verifiable, traceable way.
