Why would a new laptop need to be upgraded? It should have been delivered with the correct version of software, or no software at all, to read the voting machines.<br /><br />When a software company issues an upgrade it usually comes with instructions. If the old version had to be removed, the instructions would have stated this.

Defamation against a public official is a very high bar indeed. Not only must the charges be untrue, but one must prove actual malice.

Should we say "so what?" to that too simply because it wasn't enough to change the outcome? If ANY fraud exists in the process, it can exist throughout. Let's also keep in mind that the Republican party has gotten the first column position on the ballot in Middletown for, like, 30 out of the last 35 years, if not more. The probability of that happening in a fair capsule drawing are pretty much nil.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056623500729895802.post-31762357833653314092014-11-08T20:08:49.886-05:002014-11-08T20:08:49.886-05:00Mr. Hafner makes a good point.
