To the editor,

Please tell me you’re joking. Our city council cannot have just spent nearly half a million of our dollars on researching computerized voting. This has been done and proven faulty in the States already. In the last five years, there was a cover story in Harper’s on elections stolen through the Republican manufacturers of the machines. I’m not in any way involved in politics, but I know corruption is possible. It’s something like these giant nets dragging the bottom of the ocean—plain wrong. It’s all “special interests.”
