Rock Band Rails Against E-Vote
"They might seem an unlikely duo -- a coiffed congressman from New Jersey and a pasty-skinned garage-band front man from Alaska -- but the two are on a mission to protect voter rights and the integrity of U.S. elections.
The congressman, Rush Holt, introduced a bill to the House of Representatives last May calling for electronic voting machines to offer paper receipts so voters can verify their ballots.
The musician, Randall Scott, lead singer of the band Railer, is touring the country with band mates to promote the group's first album, Frame of Mind. But the band also is stumping for the House bill. "
