Ehrlich is trying to find a way to pay for a change of voting systems but some in the state Senate are doing all they can to squelch that plan. And in New Jersey a lawsuit against the use of Sequoia machines in the state is progressing&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div class=\"list\">\n<li>NAtional: Trust Us: Take This Box and Stuff It <a href=\"http:\/\/www.votetrustusa.org\/index.php?option=com_content&#038;task=view&#038;id=1061&#038;Itemid=26\" target=\"_blank\"><i>LINK<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>NAtional: ES&#038;S Memory Card Epidemic Spreads to Other States <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/archives\/00002565.htm\" target=\"_blank\"><i>LINK<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>AR: Voting machines to be ready for primiaries <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guardonline.com\/?module=displaystory&#038;story_id=33718&#038;format=html\" target=\"_blank\"><i>LINK<\/i><\/a><\/li>\n<li>AZ: Senate OKs measure to ensure accuracy of electronic voting (Hand counted audit of all ballots in 10 randomly selected precincts in the two largest counties.
