One important battle for election integrity is being waged by the Congressional Voting Rights Caucus

In particular there is H.R. 5131 Verifying Optimal Tools for Elections or “VOTE” Act of 2016.
by Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Georgia). Let your local representatives know that you are aware of the movement toward honest elections and you expect him or her to come on board.

you may be pleased to know that a new racketeering lawsuit that will be filed. I believe that one is being spearheaded by attorneys Bob Fitrakis and Cliff Arneback. Also Lori Grace, president of the Institute for American Democracy and Election Integrity.

“It is my strong recommendation that all election officials REFRAIN from procuring ANY system that does not provide an indisputable, voter verified paper ballot.” Dr. Rebecca Mercuri. She came up with the idea of a voter-verified balloting concept in a paper called “A Better Ballot Box.”

In my local area, I have recently contacted local elections office in Central Florida to participate as a poll worker in upcoming elections. I have a basic understanding of statistics and quality control. I have also been classified as a state whistle-blower in 2015. So I believe I should meet any minimum qualifications for insuring integrity in the local precincts.

BTW, if you're in Central Florida, you might want to know that Clint Curtis http://www.clintcurtis2016.com/
will be running in Florida District 47 in Orlando, much of his policies can be recognized as your basic Bernie progressive platform. Just to refresh your memory, a few years ago, in September 2000, Clint made national headlines in a vote fraud scandal right here in Central Florida where I live(Oviedo). Clint was asked by the Republican incumbent Tom Feeney to write a software program that would make it possible to change the results of an election undetectably. The 2008 documentary Murder, Spies & Voting Lies chronicled Clint Curtis's story.

But before that, Floridians James and Kenneth Collier wrote Votescam: The Stealing of America, published in 1992, the first hard-hitting book about high-tech vote fraud.

“Hand counted paper ballots and eternal vigilance are the only hope left for us. The corporate fascists are taking over, and we will never depose them non-violently as long as they control our elections.” Victoria Collier. Communications director of the National Election Defense Coalition,
She also contributes at http://www.truth-out.org

I believe like Victoria Collier and most Americans, and unlike all the corporate-sponsored politicians, that it is necessary to have voter-verified paper ballots.

We know that Canada hand-counts their presidential elections in four hours. Netherlands banned all electronic voting machines a decade ago, in 2006. But in the USA, we're still living in the Middle Ages. We live in a country with the worst record in the world for clean, quality-verified elections.

It's no coincidence that official vote counts habitually try to conceal this systemic fraud by keeping their own numbers at levels which are a little hard to detect, i.e. 49%-51%.

This is a 2% difference, and typical margins of errors for exit polls are typically 3%, which is also known as three-sigma in statistical quality control, or 93.3% accuracy. IOW for every 1000 votes sampled by an exit poll, it is normal to have about 70 votes to show up as a normal error for whatever reason. That would be within the margin of error in an exit poll and no cause for alarm. Can we detect the fraud at that level? I suspect it will not be good enough, we have to be smarter than the political crooks who are trying to stay one step ahead in the technology and who are trying to stay in office under the charade of a real democracy.

We can beat them with voter-verified paper ballots and hand-counts. We can detect their fraud by going to four, five or six-sigma levels of quality control. Which means to say that for every one thousand randomly-selected votes that will be hand-counted, as well as a separate exit poll, we can expect about 1/10th less errors at four-sigma instead of three-sigma, or 7 erroneous votes per 1000 hand counts instead of 70 at three-sigma. And likewise we expect 7 discrepancies in our exit polls per 1000 samples of the population set at four-sigma.

Their game of cheating by using razor-thing margins, this won't work because it would have to be much more sophisticated to beat four-sigma controls!

We can also go directly to the source of the fraud by examining the software code and the suspected pre-compiled executable programs to determine how the counts are being subverted within the central tabulators. We have to demand open-source and non-proprietary code as it is part of the public trust.

Again, as mentioned at the start, H.R. 5131 Verifying Optimal Tools for Elections or “VOTE” Act of 2016, it is the beginning of the end of fascist controls over our democracy, but it will not be the only battle that we have to wage.

At some point, people need to be arrested and face jail time. You can't make them stop by just fining them, because their allegiance is to corporations with gigantic offshore accounts. They will be reimbursed many times over and these shills will continue to cheat and steal votes in the elections.
