Q: How can I write in Ron Paul on an electronic voting machine?

A: Midget Sherman, office manager for the Angelina County Election Administrator, says it's not as difficult as it might sound.

"The electronic machine has the option on it to vote for a write-in candidate, so when you select that option to vote for a write-in candidate it automatically pulls up a key pad and allow you to type in the name of the candidate."

There's probably a code that all Write-In Votes are automatically deleted.

The Fixed Election is my biggest fear.

Plus, I think it's more complicated than that. I read somewhere that you just can't write in anybody and have it counted -- the write-in has to be running -- or something like that. This will have to be researched if comes to that situation.

Any voting machine mechanical or electronic can be fixed to read what ever

Should go back to hand counted paper ballots.
