<\/a>The “hack test” of a mock election using Diebold voting equipment earlier this week<\/a> in Leon County, Florida — in which results of the election were completely flipped from 2-6 to 7-1 without even a trail of evidence left behind<\/i> — has continued to send shockwaves from Florida to Ohio to California and everywhere else in between.<\/p>\n

The Director of Elections in Leon County, Ion Sancho reportedly proclaimed, after the stunning results of last Tuesday’s test, that he would never use Diebold voting machines in any election in the county again.<\/p>\n

Television news coverage began hitting last night in Tallahassee, the Florida state capital, which also happens to be in Leon County. And in a remarkable admission, Sancho now says he believes that such a hack occurred in the 2000<\/i> Presidential Election in Volusia County, Florida.<\/p>\n

Elections officials in Volusia County, by the way, are currently in the final throes of their<\/i> decision of whether to go with Diebold’s hackable voting machines, or whether they will go in a different direction. We may have more on that later today.<\/p>\n

States and Counties across the country are continuing their last minute scramble to make decisions about new voting equipment many of them hope to acquire and have paid for by the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002. The deadline for that decision is Jan 1, 2006 and yet there are virtually no reliable Federal standards for any<\/i> of the available Voting Machines currently on the market.<\/p>\n

Litigation was filed against Diebold, Inc. earlier this week<\/a> in Federal District Court in a Class Action Securities Fraud complaint based, in part, on their attempts at disguising the vulnerabilities and flaws of their Voting Machine equipment from investors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
