CNN reports on voting tech
"Use of any touch-screen voting machine is the equivalent of a 100% faith-based election. No votes cast during an election -- none -- can be verified as having been accurately recorded on such systems. Ever."
CNN - Analysis: Our votes are counted accurately -- aren't they? - By Dave Schechter - September 30, 2010
The quote comes from Brad Friedman of The Brad Blog - Pac-Man Hacked Onto a Touch-Screen Voting Machine Without Breaking 'Tamper-Evident' Seals - August 21, 2010
Incidentally, this statement also applies to Internet and telephone voting.

I am a long time reader of Bradblog. Brad Friedman and Bev Harris of blackboxvoting.org have been trying to get the word out on the danger of the e-voting for over five years. Other "progressive" blogs hardly touch the issue and think of them as "conspiracy theorists".
We better start the fight before it happens here too. I had to use a AccuVote scanner in the Municipal election this year and they are one of the worst for mistakes. Canadian "Dominion Voting" bought out three of the US voting systems so in a way we are interfering with their elections.
