How do we create a culture of honesty?
- Avoid extending anyone unlimited trust.
- Require oversight, auditing and accountability.
- Never act on the word of a single witness.
-- Numbers 35:30, Deuteronomy 17:6 and 20:9
"The election laws should be carefully revised and amended. As the law stands, the judges of election may utterly disregard the plain provisions of the statute respecting the rights of candidates and of electors to be present at the counting an canvassing of votes without incurring any liability, either civil or criminal"
- Governor L. D. Lewelling, Kansas, 1893.
