When I was a child, voting was carried out just the way you described it.......checking the box for the person you wanted to see elected. Representatives were there and the folded piece of paper was given to them...they recorded it and put the vote into a locked box....end of story.
I read the article when I got my newsletter. Rove is a piece of work. Acts as if he is the "kingsnake" of politics now. gag. I don't like James Carville either. :-)
