After meeting with members of the Charleston legislative delegation (Matt Leber, Joe Busos, Tom Hartnett, Kathy Landing and Jordan Pace) they asked us to draft our ideal legislation or gold standard bill for election. This bill H 4935 the Secure Accurate Verifiable Elections Act (SAVE ACT) was filed last week.
This bill gets rid of all electronics. It calls for 1 day of voting (state holiday) with paper poll books and paper ballots, eliminates early voting and absentee for 65 and over to limit mail in votes. It also establishes strong chain of custody, secure ballots measures as well as videotaping of the counting process. Please contact the house judiciary committee and ask them to schedule a hearing and to vote this out of committee.
