--- Begin Message ----Caveat Lector- Here's one "smoking gun." They seem to be littered all over the country... --------------- [Gratis: "Katie"]http://www.WISHTV.com/Global/story.asp?s=1857668 May 11, 2004 ES&S Project Manager Resigns Over Voting Machine Problems By Eric Halvorson and Loni Smith McKown The woman who blew the whistle on problems in the Marion County voting system will now watch the situation from the outside. You shouldn't know about Wendy Orange. She should be someone who served behind the scenes to make our elections work. Orange became a public figure when she revealed voting machine problems. She blamed her employer, Election Systems and Software (ES&S). Voting machine problems drove former ES&S project manager Wendy Orange to resign. She says ES&S knew it had a software problem and then tried to hide it. "I was faced with a moral and ethical dilemma and I felt the only thing that I could do was come forward and tell the Marion County clerk what had happened,î said Orange. "Needless to say, I was very angry at the situation. Also concerned about Wendy because, here, she works for this company and she's in a terrible position as an employee who is telling the client something the employer doesn't want known,î said Doris Anne Sadler, Marion County clerk. In this case, the client is Marion County represented by clerk Sadler. Sadler says that put the county in the same position as Orange - questioning the credibility of ES&S. "I think she was a very brave person for coming in and telling me the way she did,î said Sadler. In her letter of resignation, Orange said she found the corporate philosophy at ES&S to embody unethical and disreputable practices. She said she had "personally witnessed open discussions of potentially illegal procedures." "I have since learned that the standards to which I hold myself, I don't believe ES&S holds those same standards and values,î said Orange. Orange calls all of this extremely disappointing, considering her admiration for ES&S when she joined the Nebraska company. "I was impressed with the people that I met, and with the products that they provided and with the services they provided,î said Orange. Her resignation became effective Monday. "I hope my concerns were heard all the way at the top. I really do and I hope that's where the change will start,î she said. ES&S says it regrets losing any of its employees. In a letter to Orange, the company says it is disappointed and disagrees with her claims. It goes on to say that ES&S adheres to the highest ethical standards and is firmly committed to producing quality results for all of its customers, including Marion County. Sadler has asked Orange to serve on a task force to improve the election system here. Will Your Vote Count? - Read I-Team 8's investigation into problems with voting machines and software.
