Close call, neither is great, Eisenhower is too spare, Jackie's is almost busy, but Jackie's is livelier, better art, less ornate curtains. Gets dings for the ornate clocks and lamps, but getting rid of the red carpet a plus. Gosh, did chairs and couches suck back then.

Every image I find gets blocked, presumably for copyright issues, but starships Victory and Excalibur from Bab 5: babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/Victory
Curious how folks are avoiding this issue. Not the most tech savvy person on the site, to say the least. Cool ships, though.

3/2 2018 NASEM report recommends against relying on ballot images alone as an audit measure, see pp. 6, 94.
Bottom line: Combining images, vote records of all ballots WITH hand-count samples is IMO the platinum standard in vote count security.

Well... "A majority of Americans sided with the national guard because, whatever the country’s feelings about an increasingly unpopular war, the protesters had come to represent something much more objectionable." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020...
