the only number i needed to know about ohio was "four hour wait" in democratic districts in a republican-run state. perhaps you can't prove intent (though i've heard that top republican vote-counting officials met with karl rove and george bush right there on election day). how could two working voting machines for thousands and thousands of urban voters be anything but intentional?
another commenter is right that our vote-by-mail here in oregon is an excellent system. there's a paper trail, read by the same simple scantron machines that read multiple-choice tests in school. sure, the republicans will still try to throw out any ballots not marked in diebold(tm) number two pencil, but at least there will be ballots to throw out.
