Registering multiple votes currently happens with the old systems ya know. <br><br>I don't see a day anytime soon where e-voting systems will be widely accepted.  There is always a group of people that would rather stay with the current system because it's much easier to manipulate than a system who's OS can be updated to remove flaws.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[eflyer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 8:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[Notwithstanding the fact that security around the whole electronic voting process should be tight and that people should trust the results, what surprises me is that despite the intense scrutiny and probing into these systems, not one entrepreneurial type has been able to design a better system using today's technology.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carlton B.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 9:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't know about Sequoia systems but I invite you to take a look at Smartmatic's own technology. As far as I am concerned they have addressed every e-voting issue that has ever come up in the machines they provided for the Venezuelan elections: paper trail, multiple printout of counting votes, machines disconnected from the net during the elections, code auditing, etc. It is possible to make e-voting systems that work, the US authorities just don't want to hear about it. In fact, if you look at the recent Venezuelan election. The fact that in the recent very polarized Venezuelan elections the opposition accepted the results is in part credit to this voting system. <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Platy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 11:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[I vote this a quality story.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NHAnimator]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 12:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[I vote this a quality story.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NHAnimator]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 12:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[I vote this a quality story.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NHAnimator]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 12:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why is everyone so up in arms about the electronic voting?

It must just be because of previous flaws, and that it's a non-american company....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DeaDGoD]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 28th 2006 3:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Smartmatic bails from e-voting biz after media heat]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/28/smartmatic-bails-from-e-voting-biz-after-media-heat/</guid><description><![CDATA[wowowo hold it.
