I am very pessimistic!

Most of my life I was either apolitical or even conservative. About ten years ago I started to become active in the Texas Democratic Party and ran headlong into voting irregularities by both the computer voting company and my county government. This started an involuntary slide to the left ( true left , not liberalism) as I encountered a brick wall in my weak efforts to make the ballot counting in my area more transparent.

I fully believe most computer ballot counting is not reliable and thus there will be a forever dance between this democratic - republican switching.

But the way out of this has not been seen in this country. I am not sure there is a realistic escape from the above, and fully expect truly bad gop governments in the future which will alternate with Democratic Party governments
