This is a discussion about HB0614, the Tennessee Voter Confidence Act (aka the paper ballot).
Why are some election officials doing their best to stonewall this law?
The implementation of the law (Tennessee Voter Confidence Act) would bring paper ballots - and secure viable elections - to Tennessee.
At last, Tennessee voters would have a “paper trail,” a concrete record to check the accuracy of a vote count in case of computer glitches, recounts, and allegations of fraud.
The reason that this discussion is so important: In our classes we have tried to emphasize the need for our students to always develop paper trails in order to have evidence as a strategy against bias and professorial misconduct. Not only is this important information that we may want to know about (look up the law in the particular state that you live in), hopefully, it is an illustration that can allow all to see how little we are paying attention to changes that are taking place or not taking place and to what degree we must attain to protect ourselves. Everything that we do (if it is important) keep a PAPER TRAIL.
