06.>>>>More Scrutiny of Electronic Voting Systems
...(Government Technology: 22/10/2003)
The last presidential election hung by a chad, and intense scrutiny
of
manual voting systems exposed inherent weaknesses. More recently,
California's recall election was briefly on hold as a lower
court ruled that
manual systems still in place in the state could disenfranchise
voters by
inaccuracies. That ruling was overturned, the election proceeded,
and the
vote was not close enough to be affected by the margin of error.
Nevertheless, as electronic systems are plugged in for the next
general
election, concerns mount that these machines, and the votes
they tally,
could somehow be manipulated.
