PPC Presentation to the State Elections Committee by Stan Merriman

DO TEXANS WANT `FAITH-BASED' VOTING OR VERIFIABLE VOTING?

My name is Stan Merriman. I am the Chair Emeritus and co-founder of the Progressive Populist Caucus of the Texas Democratic Party. I am here today representing my Caucus, which authored the "Resolution on Protection From Election Fraud" which passed our 2004 State Convention to become the official position of the Texas Democratic Party. This Resolution advocates the incorporation of a voter verifiable paper ballot with all electronic voting machines used in our Texas elections.
