At least some people are noticing now...

A national body, no less. Voting advocates, security advocates, And basiclly anyone with half a brain* has only been saying this for 6 years+. I like how Diebold's response to the report is to say nothing, do nothing, which has kind of been their response for everything the last 6 years. It's unfathomable to me, that the only widely deployed piece of equipment Diebold makes that doesn't create it's own verifiable papertrail is the voting machine(s). God forbid an ATM starts handing out $5 bills, now THAT's something important, lets make sure those get verified. I'm not one to put on the tinfoil hat all that often, but the lack of any kind of verification, plus the "no comment" defence makes me wonder who pays them off.


*this automatically excludes most diehard, sucking-off-the-party-line political freak's I've met. Both parties.
