The #1 risk to our freedoms is the programmable electronic voting machines. Whomever programs the machines determines the results. And no one other than the machine provider has access to the programming. Nothing is automatic on the machines. The programmer has to write all instructions for the machine. Additionally, the machine does not read our vote. It reads a bar code. Both Federal and State laws provide the Right to the voter to have his or her vote accurately counted. We cannot read bar codes, so we do not know if our vote was accurately counted. States need to abide by their laws and provide a vote counting system where the voter can trust the vote was accurately counted. The States need to prohibit the use of electronic voting machines and instead use legal paper ballots and a manual counting system to comply with State and Federal laws.
Agreed. I believe that the eficacy of hand-counted paper ballots was proven in Nevada, by several counties. Furthermore, I think the data from those counties can be used to prove that the machines are manipulated, by comparing the election results, and how Republicans, especially America-First Republicans, performed much better in only those counties, compared to the counties that only used machines. Then compare those tallies with previous election results. It's amazing how much the support of America-First only improved in those counties, because they had to make the machines match the hand counts.
I am currently in a dispute with my local REC and the issue of "resolutions" is at the center of it. I need advice. The local Chair insists that motions be provided to him in advance. He NEVER opens the floor for motions unless it's administrative issues. It is my feeling that members are required to submit motions in advance and at Tuesday night's REC meeting he shut down my attempt to offer a motion. When I have read RINO HUNTER and some of the comments, you continually refer to "resolutions". It is my belief that "resolutions" and "motions" are two different things. Both the RPOF Constitution and the County Model Constitution address submission of RESOLUTIONS. Motions are NOT addressed in either document and, as such, fall under the authority of Roberts Rules of Order (for all issues not addressed in the Constitution and Rules). It is my understanding (and according to a previous RPOF Grievance Committee Chairman and current Rules Committee member) that a RESOLUTION is an item of policy and the rules clearly state they must be submitted in advance, MOTIONS are an item of action, and may be made from the floor at any time. Item 4:4 of RRO presents a distinction between a resolution and a motion. RRO addresses making motions in many places and none of them specify advance notice, in fact, RRO makes it clear that motions are a right of the member and can be made at any time. Our Chairman's exact words when I attempted to make the motion were "a motion is not in order at this time". Keep in mind, this is an REC Chairman who has not produced an agenda in advance in at least 5 of the past 6-7 meetings and NEVER has New Business in the meeting. No agenda was produced on Tuesday evening, so there was no way to know what was coming. I am desperate for advice, responses, perspectives. I am pursuing answers from parliamentary experts also.
Shall spread the word like WILD FIRE with my 61 Keyboard warriors!
Out them with the ban the jab resolution that Bob linked to.
