#1 Jail time! That's what we need is jail time. There has to be someone in that scenerio who deserves it.

#2 I think we can safely say the ENTIRE process nationwide is suspect.

#3 exactly. There has to be costs for tampering with the election process. Hard time for the bastards that steal votes paid for with blood, sweat and tears. I'm all or ID checks at vote booths, pen-time for those tampering with votes, disenfranchising honest Americans. Perhaps RICO act violations for campaigns and pen-time for the ACORN assholes as well.

#4 Take them out and shoot them - or at least give them some serious hard time (10+ years hard labor). I am sick and tired of having our election process compromised over and over and having them get away with it.

The punishment behind a law tells people how important you think it is. Letting these people get off scott free is just eroding our election process because we, in fact, do not give a damn about the integrity of the process.

People have sacrificed their lives so that we can have a free society and allowing these creatins to compromise that makes their sacrifice cheap. We shouldn't stand for it as a nation.

#5 One or two corrupt officials end up in a ditch and the rest learn the lesson. This would be atrocious obviously, an act of murder. But I fear that is the way things are headed if the people decide they can no longer trust the law to be enforced.

Works for me. How do we single out and select the corrupt officials?
