While i agree, can you imagine the number of conspiracy theories that would come out from this. While the code is open source, some hack would take snippets of code, put them together into a picture/video, upload the video talking about how the election is fake, and then the damage is done. Seriously, 9-11 will…

Ah I have to thank Sam for brining out the trolls today.

Ah ignorant dourtney is back. I thought you were going to the Verge from now on. Or did Sam Biddle satisfy your need to try and bash on the GOP?

Well said! "Its a proud time to be ignorant" You deserve a beer on the house...

Yawn, the same thing was happening in reverse in North Carolina where a vote for Romney automatically picked Obama. Machine needs to be calibrated or taken offline. Next...

I see your point regarding equal rights for gay men, but for women... that's laughable. Pretty much everything out there regarding women's rights and Romney is hokey pokey propaganda and intimidation through fear at its worst.

Yes exactly because there is nothing more important in the world than gay men getting married and women getting free birth control. Yep...

Look in comparison to the number of political articles written during any of the past presidencies/congress/senate elections, I actually enjoy the lack of political articles on Giz. Sure they may have done it in the past, but I applaud the decision they are making now and hope they stick to it in the future.

No, but I doubt the truth would change your opinion anyway.

4 years .... seriously if you can't find one day out of 4 years at your minimum wage job to visit the DMV... then you don't deserve to vote.

Haha... nice

Yes... pretty simply solution to a very simple but overly dramatized problem.

Irregardless - a standard needs to begin at some point in time. Just because in the past, should not mean that in the future. USA.gov has provided methods for a person to determine your citizenship if you don't have a birth certificate or SS#. Ultimately the burden of proof falls on the citizen, not the gov. And…

BS - You have to be either extremely lazy or incompetent to no get an ID. You have 4 years to do it. Get started. If you miss voting in this election, at least be ready by the next one. To do or get just about anything in the US, you need an ID.

I think you forgot your /sarcasm tag.

Yes - what Kandrala said + you do realize that Democrats had the party majority in both House and the Senate during Obama's first 2 years. He and the democratic party did such wonderful things that the Democrats lost the House at the next election. But obviously its the Republicans fault... seriously, your Koolaid…

Yeah, based on his past record, he must be incompetent.

Then you are retarded... or simply don't know what it means or is required to be a "Christian". His basic tenets of faith didn't line up with Christianity.

All wars/mass deaths are done and motivated by personal profit. Religions' are merely an excuse used to rile up people when and if it works.

Theres nothing that a sock + lube can't do for both...
