Open voting; the next crisis?

The paper trail and other necessities for a democracy. Progressives and Democrats hopeful for meaningful change need to declare now that they do not recognize votes decided by no-paper-trail voting machines, nor candidates elected that way, however they turn out. This is a serious gauntlet to throw down, and the sooner the better to sort out the implications the details of non-recognition.

Coutnries around the world could also declare a similar non-recognition and what sanctions they plan to apply, as already have been with countries whose elections and governments are not seen as legitimate. in past decades.
