There have been some reports of US election shenanigans on the blogs, but if there had been any serious fraud then I think the volume would have been much louder by now.
Here is an article by Robin Bloor of Bloor Research that pretty much sums up my opinion of the election process. This doesn’t, by the way, mean that I endorse Robin Bloor wholesale - I think he is a media tart and wrong about a lot of things. But that doesn’t mean I have to disagree with everything he says.
