It seems like so long ago, the night of the last Presidential election, with the excitement and anticipation. Before I went to sleep that night I spent some time checking "unscientific" online polls. I copied and pasted these into e-mails, sure that when I woke up on November 3rd, that John Kerry would be the new President. And boy, did we need a new President.
Well, to my dismay, we didn't get anything new. We got more of the same. I was furious, but not surprised. I remember sending out a barrage of e-mails, later on in that week, with something like, "I told you so, they rigged it and they want to make this country just like Brazil." You know what Brazil is like? A few stinking, filthy rich people driving around in bullet-proof SUVs and living in gated and guarded compounds, and the majority of the people barely surviving. Massive amounts of homeless children, driven to prostitution, and who knows what else.
I'll bet you're wondering where the hell I'm going with this aren't you?
Cue the Twilight Zone music, OK?
Diebold got started in it's voting machine business in Brazil.
