<\/a>San Mateo Co California planned on using all Hart eSlate machines at polling sites. They are concerned about the voters and poll workers not having enough time to get acclimated to the machines so they will now have just one machine and ask the voters to use paper ballots. Warren Slocum, the county’s Chief Elections Office, should be applauded for caring. \/ Connecticut has now announced plans to do random audits of their LHS (Diebold) optical-scan machines \/ Today is the last state primary (Hawaii) this season. \/ A judge in Colorado has found that though the state can still use DREs in Nov. they will only be used with increased security and that they will all be decertified following the election and reports are that the new certification may make it impossible to get DREs certified in the state in the future. This sounds like a resounding success and there will surely be a lot more….<\/p>\n
