Something stinks about those e-voting systems. There has been plenty of ancillary evidence of problems and strong suggestions of vote tampering that anything less than a complete and total nth level evaluation of the system would be criminally negligent.
These machines are being used in American elections. The usual corporate-government relationship cannot be allowed to exist. If anything, more attention needs to be paid to this than the evaluation of a new jet fighter. The effects of such a system could be more disastrous. The intellectual properties argument is just a smoke screen, and if anything, even more suggestive of potential problems with the system, either intentional or not. No more of theses corporate shell games.
