On June 2, the Utah Supreme Court heard arguments in Anderson v Lieutenant Governor, 2010-237. The issue is whether signatures may be collected electronically. The plaintiff, Farley Anderson, is an independent candidate for Governor. He won’t be on the ballot unless the Court agrees with some of Utah’s county elections officials that the electronic signatures Anderson gathered are valid. The counties have already checked the signatures, and they believe that the signatures are, or should be, considered valid. See this story.
It would be so much easier to just let Diebold register and vote for all of us.
Oh wait…they already do in some states, don’t they?
