This is a preliminary snippet of an article - I suspect Kneem will link more (if he hasn't already - List seems slow today?). >:P
http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1104-5197870.html "SACRAMENTO, Calif.--California election officials on Thursday recommended banning some Diebold Election Systems voting machines and referred an investigation into the company to the attorney general for possible civil and criminal sanctions. "The California secretary of state's panel on voting systems and procedures made its recommendation to the secretary of state in a second morning of contentious hearings, during which Diebold's president apologized to the panel and admitted that the company's errors had prevented some Californians from voting. "But panel members said Thursday morning that the company's apologies were insufficient, and they expressed frustration with and distrust of the leading electronic voting vendor for California counties." Time to put voting back into the hands of the people!
