T O  needs your help

Thanks, I sent off a letter as soon as saw your post! Here is a copy of the letter I sent.
======
To the Secretary of State's office:

I hope you will continue the efforts of your
predecessor to keep voter verified paper audit trail
system in place and to continue to be a requirement
for the year 2006.
I understand the hearing to weaken this standard will
be held 3-15 in Sacramento. Please be aware of how
little work is required to mess up a user's computer
system on the Internet as an example. Any computerized
system can be easily intruded and cause permanent
damage without the necessary software installed for
protection.
Our voter system is much the same in the fact that it
is a software package that can be intruded by
knowledgeable programmers. A paper trail is the only
way in the event of intrusion that we can avoid the
disaster of voter fraud.
Our great state of CA is seen as an entrepreneur by
other states and some follow our set example. So it is
of up most importance that we set a good example and
do everything humanly possible to protect the voter
system in CA.

Sincerely,

Vickie McCullough

I hope others take charge and send off their own letter to the CA sec. of State, if not any one can use my letter as a start or replacement of the letter they wish to send. Thanks again, Vi

Every time I post, I seem to make some dumb mistake. The hearing in Sac. is 3-17 not 3-15. Sorry, my finger hit the wrong key.

Thanks for the support, Vi.

I ve had a lot oops my self of late. I should have left my real name out of the last post, but you know what I don't care because I believe in what I said. Regardless of the dates being wrong I think my intent should be understood. Whether action is taken is another thing. Thanks Vi
