It's rediculous that in this modern day when using the technology we have that we can't have a paper trail for our votes, but then I know why because the Republicans are afraid they will lose the vote of the people so if they choose they can just ignore the people who did vote for a candidate they don't want in. Another thing that gets my goat, why is it just a few people get to decide when something should be voted on. Bring everything up for the full House and Senate to vote on everything that needs to be done. Now here we are again the last two years or so was the stupid dove bill a waste of time and this year it's now the Touch Play machines so the budget gets left again to the last thing which should be the first and only thing that should be done in the first two weeks of the session. I hope the ones that are up for reelection gets voted out because we definitely need some new blood and not the same old career politicians.
