The BRAD BLOG : Tale of the Tapes: Wisconsin's 'Dog-and-Pony Show' Faith-Based Supreme Court Election 'Recount'

As ballots in Wisconsin were not counted on Election Night, at the polls, by human beings, in front of the public, all parties, and video cameras, with results posted directly at each ward before ballots were moved anywhere --- as per "Democracy's Gold Standard" --- and because the chain of custody has been irretrievably violated in the case of thousands of ballots, we are left with nothing but guesswork as to the authenticity of the ballots and the true results of the election.

The author of The Brad Blog is just about the only person anywhere who's been consistently covering this story of voting machines and election hanky-panky for a decade now. Nobody else seems to care and certainly nobody else is asking the obvious question: If we can't trust how the votes are counted, what's the point in having elections in the first place?

The full post (linked above) is a long one but it's worth reading every word.
