[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just ran into a volunteer for Miranda’s campaign. They didn’t have an iPad. They just were handing cards at a park and telling folks they can scan the QR code to vote. I had a lovely conversation and asked if they were providing voting devices (after seeing this thread). She looked at me with confusion and said there were inperson voting options if unneeded help. [/quote] So Kadera’s supporters are spreading conspiracy theories? That figures.[/quote] It is a strange story indeed. Look, its quite clear who benefits from a higher voter turnout with more 'newbies' to the caucus voting- Miranda. So it is in Miranda's interest to clear away participation hurdles and its in Mary's interest to lay them down. Mary's campaign spins out this bizarre story about being able to 'record votes' on borrowed devices. Mary asks Miranda to sign a pledge that she won't let any campaign volunteer lend someone their device to vote. Miranda (rightfully) refuses to agree. Not b/c she has a 'plan' to harvest votes, but rather b/c she is not going to make wierdo rules for her campaign volunteers. E.G. if a volunteer is out stumping at a farmers market and someone says Oh I'd really like to vote but I'm confused by the process etc- that volunteer can, if they choose, and the voter is interested, whip out their tablet and let the person vote. Its hardly nefarious- its increasing participation- something the dems always gave lip service to wanting.... [/quote]
