Today, Monday, the state of Massachusetts goes to court to defend themselves in a lawsuit brought by Diebold. Diebold claims that the state should have bought their accessible voting machines rather than the AutoMark that was offered by ES&S because the Diebold voting machine was the best of the two. Perhaps Diebold will offer to explain to the judge what makes their voting system accessible. I doubt that will happen because they would have a lot of problem proving the imaginary.
