To the editor
Does your vote really count'

Votes and elections were being
stolrn by the use of computers
The government's case against
wide spread vote tampering in L' S
election* is keyed to the Vote Scam
Video that was viewed In a special
meeting on July 4. r**4 by two
ranking Justice Department offi
cials The meeting was authorized
by the Attorney (ieneral William
French Smith with review by Sena
tor Mawhms of Florida
After having read this "disserta
lion" I began to mull over a few
piwsibillties
I I I Computer experts can easily
enter secretly programmed compu
ter rooms during the evening and
tamper with the results It has been
done before
• 2> Certain controversial candi
dates fall behind imysterous break
down i it would tie very easy for a
"hacker" with a fingers touch alter
the "expression of the people " Who
would be the wiser’
13 > If in the event of a recount by-
computers it would be impossible to
verify an election if there had been
voter tampering
Special referen
dum* in West Virginia have been
launched to do away with computers
and go back to hand counting votes
It is less expensive, but I'd hate
to think that my vote could be
rendered as a political empty ges
lure
Computers on election night in our
political system could be a mortal
threat to the sanctity of the voting
process, and our Freedoms
