  • We use paper vote, envelope and transparent box with people watching the whole voting process the whole day (with rotation). Some are neutral (any citizen living in the town can do it), some represent one candidate. Everybody observe the others and the voters. They count the amount of people who vote and will compare it later in the counting process.

    For the counting process, in the same room, we put several table, the transparent box with all vote that nobody let unwatched is emptied on several tables and counted by group of people (neutral) and observed by anyone in the room (candidate representant, officials and anybody … i did it once after i voted… it was really well organized).

    The result are counted several time by different people and amount are manually checked by everybody : amount of voter = sum of votes for one candidate + other candidates + invalid vote (paper with invalid mark, wrong size, wrong color, white paper, …) The results are also noted by at least two people that compare their total number each 10 results counted… Any deviation and you restart the current packet.

    The sum of the sum are also checked and all the party (neutral, candidate representant, observers) must agree with the result. Then the head of the vote bureau will transmit the result to a dedicated and secured line at region level, who will also check the number with the official numbers of voter and will compile all the towns result give and report back at country level.

    These numbers are also displayed in a dedicated website as soon they are received so we know the first result less that 2~3 hours after vote closure. The votes are then secured by a justice officer and be at disposal if a reclamation raise. We can also cross check the official numbers from the website with the one from our town. They always matches which is good!

    No electronic counting, no postal vote (as we can’t be sure a husband voted for his wife), you have to vote in person without pressure from outside, everything can be checked by anybody without the risk of altering the result. We do that since centuries and our election have always been trusted by the population and the candidates.






  • I remember and will never forget the media, politic and the following “french frog white flag bashing” when we told you the reasons invoked for this war were bullshit…

    But more important, I will always remember the deadly attacks we got in our country following the global destabilisation you created in the world. They couldn’t access USA so they targeted the Europe instead… Charlie Hebdo, the Bataclan and many more…

    I have participated to a retrospective meeting leaded by the colonel in charge of Paris when several sites and the Bataclan were attacked. And how he had to choose where to send the help and how many vehicules he could afford, trying to know if another attack will happens in another site. In this meeting I’ve also heard the phone call of people crying for help and being executed by these fanatics…

    Knowing that 6 days before I was in this same fucking place listening Nobuo Uematsu playing final fantasy music… I’m sure you understand why I will never forget that.

    I’m lucky this concert was not on the same day of the football/soccer game they initialy targeted but couldn’t due to the enhanced security this day (a minister was there with my company boss and some others colleagues). So they started to travel in the city, shooting at random (like bars) before entering in the concert room and massacre everybody inside…

    All of that for the $ of your dear GOP members… The fucking $ you put in all conversations like it’s the ultimate goal of a life. More important than a life… A child life in a school for example…

    Please USA, clean your shit, i’m sick seeing the world being impacted by your politics…



  • First time war?

    It has always been like that and it’s a reason a war should be avoided when you don’t have the power to maintain your military and economic force…

    And it’s exactly why main leaders of the worlds warned russia months before the invasion until the first day of the invasion: “Are you sure? You should not move so many troops near ukraine border for your ’exercice’ Because you have more too loose as a super-power country”

    He didn’t listen so now pay back!



  • Ho, sorry for my reaction

    I see so many people not grasping how serious the situation is (or just saying: he’s jockiiiing) that my blood boil. Also because last summer, I saw my grandmother cry while she was remembering how she lost her sister during the first days of the WWII (killed in her house due to the bombing of the train station nearby). She was 5~6 yo and her sister 10yo. All of that because people didn’t react strongly enough to stop a party and a crazy man.

    Good luck for the election


  • When we should start to worry? When it’s too late?

    Young, I couldn’t comprehend how Hitler was elected, disgraced then could come back and how the people let that happening.

    Decades later, i really understand: complacency.

    Someone bringing the presidency position just casually say in front of the press that he want to hurt its opponent… In public.

    Imagine what he say in private, with all his yes men and psycho writer of project 2025 for example… And we know it’s not an accident, he reference hitler more than once… He is in admiration with dictators… he want to be one of them…

    Yeah, please “don’t exaggerate”.

    Don’t learn from the history. You’re lucky he is also stupid and old…
