How much wasted money? These guys should all be held accountable for wasting taxpayers’ money. Of course, the whole idea is to get to the 2004 election that eliminates the voters’ right to vote, then quickly shift to the Internet voting systems, so no accountability liabilities have a chance to surface. Bottom line, we lose our right to vote, and Australia keeps theirs at a fraction of the cost. How come?
