Boston City Councilor Felix Arroyo.
I just met Felix Arroyo at our neighborhood block party and was imppressed.

He wants to know why we had to purchase those new voting machines, instead of leasing them for a year first.

Like me, he figures that other companies will enter the market by next year, and why should we be tied to old technology that makes you completely fill in a circle with a pencil.

At least in Peabody they have ballots where you draw a straight line to complete an arrow.

That's a much easier way to mark a ballot.

Don't you think?

Felix liked the straight line idea and made note of it.

I like that guy.
