Alex and all,

  It was for statewide and national.  Some local governments, city and county
do this as well in Texas and quite a few other states.  Minnisota for example,
is one that I am familiar with.  I am supprised how ignorant folks are of this
myself.

  As far as how it works, to my knowledge it works just fine as long as you
are pre registered.  What is rally needed is a web based voter registration
system that is nation wide.  Of course each state will vary.  But if the USG
model is used by states this may not be a big problem.

  It is for this reason that we see no barriers, contrary to the late Jon
Postels
contention, why this same process cannot be used in the Individual Membership
Organization in the ICANN as well as any of the SO's, for that matter....
