I have to wonder if this current Colorado administration isn't just trying to leverage their newfound power to ensure their future victories as well.

The ESS systems we use here have tons of redundancy features, including voter verifiable paper ballots that are stored in the machine. I can't see why they've been decertified just a couple of months before the primaries. Couldn't they have done this far enough in advance that they could have addressed the issues before the next vote?]]>Dec 21st 2007 2:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/colorado-voting-machines-dont-make-the-grade/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/colorado-voting-machines-dont-make-the-grade/the chad problem is a result of an idiotic mixed solution.

You want a good system

the only thing the computer should do is print a ballot paper marked with the candiate you choose(that is until you introduce prefs and bin that electoral college) then you go stick that in a ballot box which is the real vote

the computer means nothing
the ballot paper is everything
