Think everyone voted in the First US Elections? Women could not. Blacks could not. We had killed Indians near us. Think everyone from the country did? What about in Frontier times, think ballot boxes made it out to Western Towns? I think not. Voting is never perfect... Even in Afghanistan- they werent using the non-washable ink... but doing it to the best of their ability makes them winnars

All the miscounts and voter fruad will get worked out in time, hell its been over 200 years here and we can't figure out how to punch out chads - or remembering to check Boxes to declare us Citizens ( ala Colorado- and i dont care if it was already confirmed in the affidavit above- if you cant fill out the whole forum, you dont vote!!)

Blacks and women couldn't vote for aLONG time in this country- so if 2/3rds of their country votes , and 1/3rd doesnt, wait 150 years and we'll checkback - i bet theyll be moving along faster than we did
