WAY TO GO MARYLAND!
MARCH 10, 2006 (COMPUTERWORLD) - The state of Maryland stands poised to put its entire $90 million investment in Diebold Election Systems Inc. touch-screen e-voting systems on ice because they can’t produce paper receipts.
The state House of Delegates this week voted 137-0 to approve a bill prohibiting election officials from using AccuVote-TSx touch-screen systems in 2006 primary and general elections. http://www.computerworld.com/governm...109436,00.html
1 down 36 to go! Diebold makes voting machines that are used in 37 states, but they provide no verifiable record and lack even basic protection against fraud. http://scdc.sccs.swarthmore.edu/diebold/ |
