Summary
Do you trust eletronic voting machines? As it turns out, they're largely a scam: the software can be rewritten at any time by the machine manufacturers, legal or otherwise.

Details
- Diebold Election Systems has had a tumultuous year, and it doesn't
look like it's getting any better.
- Last January the electronic voting machine maker faced public
embarrassment when voting activists revealed the company's insecure FTP
server was making its software source code available for everyone to
see.
- Now a former worker in Diebold's Georgia warehouse says the company
installed patches on its machines before the state's 2002 gubernatorial
election that were never certified by independent testing authorities or
cleared with Georgia election officials.
- If the charges are true, Diebold could be in violation of federal and
state election-certification rules.
- Harris has spent a year investigating problems with electronic voting
systems, and is the author of a forthcoming book on the technology.
