TITLE They Lost My Vote (3:50)
Singer songwriter, Ellen Bukstel and Co-writer Nancy Wuerzburger create another award winning song together, and Ellen brings it to life with her powerful voice! "If we can land a rocket ship on the moon, or make a cell phone ring in our favorite tune, If we can send sound waves through the air, then Votin' machines should be countin fair. Anyone can hack the files and push delete, there'd be no proof and I got no receipt. So let's get the system under control and the final results will match the exit poll."
