A furor seems to have erupted recently among verified voting activists about HR 550, a bill that seeks to improve our voting laws by requiring a paper trail and audits. Bev Harris of Black Box Voting came out in opposition to the bill on the same day that True Majority emailed their members urging support for it. Debate has raged on lists and web sites all week.
