Document your vote.
Hello fellow voters! If you are voting on a touch-screen type machine, there were concerns in 2004, 2006, and now in 2008 about vote-flipping. What is vote-flipping? It is where you touch the portion of the screen for candidate X, but your vote flips over and it appears that you touched the screen to indicate candidate Y.
Poor screen calibration, or malicious tampering can be the culprit.
Your recourse may be as close as your cell-phone. If it takes video clips, you may want to film yourself voting for.....oh, I don't know.....Obama, just to make sure you have documentation to show poll-workers if your vote ends up flipping to.....oh, I don't know......McCain.
Film those votes! if yours flips, you now have proof to share with the poll workers, election monitors, your Secretary of State, and the Federal Elections Commission.
Protect your vote. Document your vote.
