Five Florida counties get uncertified voting machines<\/b><\/p>\n

ORLANDO, Fla. – Five counties received new touch-screen voting machines that weren’t certified for use in Florida because they were upgraded without approval from state officials, officials said.<\/p>\n

The Diebold Election Systems machines were delivered in Volusia, Polk, Leon, Putnam and Glades counties with memory, processor, display and other improvements.<\/p><\/div>\n

And from the Daytona Beach News-Journal<\/i>…<\/a><\/p>\n

Touch-screen voting devices not certified<\/b><\/p>\n

DELAND — A funny thing happened when Volusia County elections officials fired up their new touch-screen voting machines — they discovered the equipment wasn’t certified by the state.<\/p>\n

Diebold Election System shipped upgraded models — 210 of them — not yet verified by the Florida Division of Elections.<\/p><\/div>\n

How much higher can the mountain of evidence get to make the case that these guys should be put out of the election business and our democracy’s misery immediately and entirely?<\/p>\n

Who the hell is running the federal Elections Assistance Commission (EAC)? OJ’s jury?!<\/p>\n
