 Voting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some people think that whenever votes are recorded in a medium which is invisible to humans, electors lose any possibility to verify how their votes are collected and tallied up to produce the final result, thus they need to have an absolute faith in the accuracy, honesty and security of the whole electoral apparatus.
A secret ballot, the standard way to protect voters' political privacy, generally takes place at a polling station.
Russia offers its electors a "None of the Above" option, so that protest votes can be properly tallied.

 Vote! - Why your ballot isn't as meaningless as you think. By Jordan Ellenberg
It's precisely this sensitivity to small swings in key states that makes people fume about the Electoral College—that saturates Tampa with campaign ads and volunteers and leaves Los Angeles quiet, that makes elections vulnerable to targeted fraud beforehand and targeted lawsuits afterwards.
Maybe because we're motivated to avoid even small possibilities of regret—the regret that those Al Gore supporters who sat out Florida in 2000 surely feel, whether economists think they're being rational or not.
You know that if 538 fewer Bush votes had been counted in Florida, Al Gore would be president.

Anther point, which SingingBanzo points out, is that Feedcast already has been rejected once.
I've set the closing date to 30th September for now; it's a balance between giving a date which is impending and overbearing enough to get lots of votes in, and the belief that since this is the nth round of voting, people are by now hardened skeptics as to the efficacy of the process.

Berlin - Angela Merkel's conservatives look set to extend their lead over German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's Social Democrats to four parliamentary seats after a delayed district vote on Sunday, according to a projection.
