Bachmann and Kline Vote Against Democracy, a factual case

In an ubelievable case, Michelle Bachmann and John Kline both voted against a bill last week that would help ensure free and fair elections. No matter what side of the aisle you are on, it has been obvious that there have been a few technological glitches with electronic voting. In a massive bi-partisan effort, the House voted to help counties provide a paper back up trail to electronic voting. The Honorable Rep. Ramstad (R) voted for this bill, because he knew it would help defend Democracy and the constitution he swore to defend. Of course, Kline and Bachmann serve another master, that is not the people nor the constitution. Using Zimbabwe-esque logic, they voted down this Democracy saving bill. Democrats and many Republicans rightfully voted for this bill, but it was people from the third, Fascist wing, that blocked the 2/3rds necessary for passage. Read on for the non-partisan and indisputible facts on their betrayel:

BACKUP PAPER BALLOTS: Voting 248 for and 170 against, the House on July 15 failed to reach a two-thirds majority needed to pass a bill (HR 5803) authorizing $75 million in grants to help states and localities purchase backup paper ballots for use in this year's elections if electronic systems break down.

A yes vote was to pass the bill.
