"We need more audits. We need recounts. Trust no one. If it can't be verified, it can't be used": Ion Sancho. Why is it that newspapers in Virginia talk about their new voting machines and mention they are AccuVote Touch Screens but the papers never utter the name "Diebold"? Official results for Luzerne County Ohio's primary race are down by 10 percent from unofficial count done on election night. This mistake by an ES&S employee's failure to reset a counter to zero has resulted in a change in at least one race. It will also surely result in recounts and/or lawsuits. Poll workers in Arkansas seem to be having some problems getting voters to try the new iVotronics. Up to 75% of the voters have opted to use paper ballots. And, Arkansas SoS Daniels has no stated that he will be talking with ES&S about their failure to support elections in his state. Of course, the DoJ is in Arkansas and one of the things they are surely looking at is that four counties are still using their old lever machines because of ES&S's failures....
