On the recordApril 15, 2008
I just wanted to address a couple of the points that the gentleman from Ohio made. The first is we don't in this legislation tell the counties how to run their elections. We leave this up to them, and it is entirely optional. There are States around the country who have instituted complete auditable election systems in a matter of months. If a county or a State feels they cannot do it, then I would advise them not to opt in to this program. But we believe they can. Let's leave that to them rather than as the gentleman from Ohio would, try to decide for them whether this is something that they would want. We believe from a number of indications that this will be useful in many counties and States around the country.
