Reform election count and postal subsidies critique
The piece argues reforms are needed to reduce counting errors in county and state elections noting 40 to 60 errors in a single precinct and potential 300 to 400 countywide discrepancies. It blames tired officials and clerical limits, urges better selection of election workers, and questions the system’s fairness. It also criticizes government subsidies to shipping and aviation, calls for trimming such subsidies, and highlights budget deficits and tax changes. It cites Nebraska data and a Creighton psychologist quip, ending with deficits and revenue shifts in the federal half year.
