Obviously you picked it up. This, we're talking about exact words when these days will be set. What about that? What's the difference here? That board is illegal. There's not a board. How can you as Senate President even allow this to happen?" Senator Cohen, "Then NSA is not legal(?)."

" Clay, "Mr. Ohriner, state your point." Ohriner, "The point is that if you're contention is that nothing done by a board that does not have those numbers in it is constitutional. . ." Eglet, "My contention is . . ." Ohriner, "Wait, wait, wait. Let me finish. If that's your point and that any action they take is therefore unconstitu-or should not be held, then you have to, I would suggest that you research the records and find out how many times we've had a board that has not had the exact make up as set forth in the constitution and nullify what they have done. What you would basically do would nullify most of the actions this senate has ever, ever taken." Senator Cohen requested a five minute recess.

What I could do to win this election is make sure that the polling booths closed early in my constituents college. . .(?) Okay now steal the books so that they couldn't find out that my supporters voted as many times as they felt like it. And (?) do now is take sides with the President so any progess or any attempt the senate might have to rectify the problems that I talked about, having (?) to win this election, because the president will veto it. Okay, now. This is what's happening. Someone's going to win this cicction because of this. Are we going to support that? A corrupt election?"
