One has to wonder what Sequoia has to hide. They claim to have sent the system used in New Jersey to Wyle Labs to be inspected. They also claim that Wyle is independent, however, Sequoia is paying for the inspection and Wyle has in their best interest to not find any problems because they previously tested this voting system and allowed it to be qualified by NASED. If they find any problems Wyle would open themselves up to the question of why did they not find that problem when they ITA tested the system a couple years ago?<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>{Ed Note: Sequoia&#8217;s 82-page court filing today may now be <a href=\"https:\/\/bradblog.com\/Docs\/Sequoia_MercerCountyNJ_Quash_040908.pdf\">downloaded here [PDF, 7.5mb]<\/a>. &#8211; BF}<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Diebold\/Premier has responded to the 105 lost votes in Butler Co., Ohio, by claiming there was an &#8220;anomaly&#8221;\u009d and that it had never happened before.
