In the summer of 2007 they ran one of the most extraordinary and explosive expos\u00e9s on the topic we’ve ever seen<\/a>. It included absolutely mind-blowing details on ES&S iVotronic touch-screens voting machines (the same ones currently failing in North Carolina<\/a> and in Texas<\/a> and being used in about 15 other states this year) and featuring an astonishing segment with seven on-camera employee\/whistleblowers from Sequoia Voting Systems charging they were ordered by higher-ups to rig the chads to fail, only in Florida<\/i>, on the paper ballots their company made for the 2000 election. You can (and should!<\/i>) watch that remarkable report — picked up by absolutely nobody in the MSM, incredibly enough — right here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This Tuesday, it looks like HDNet’s Dan Rather Reports<\/i> is set to roll another story on hackable e-voting systems. Here’s the :30 second teaser for their latest…<\/p>\n

The premiere showing will be Tuesday, Oct. 26th @ 8pm and is described this way on HDNet’s Dan Rather Report’s<\/i><\/a> website:<\/p>\n

Das Vote<\/b> – As Americans prepare to vote-many of them by electronic machines-millions of Europeans are going back to paper and pencil. Germany is just one of three European countries to buy electronic voting machines, only to throw them out after hackers demonstrate their vulnerabilities. Also, one American’s fight against voting machines in his state.<\/div>\n

With all the endless hours (upon hours, upon hours) the network and cable news mainstreamers like Chris Matthews have found to devote to the horse-race and politicking<\/i> of these elections, you’d think they might be able to find more than just 19 seconds to cover the issue that can be, and so often has been, the deciding factor in so many recent elections. If you’d think that, you’d be wrong. 19 seconds is all Rather got on this weekend’s Chris Matthews Show<\/i> to discuss the topic. [Hat-tip Heather at Crooks & Liars<\/i><\/a>]…<\/p>\n

UPDATE 10\/27\/10:<\/b> The HDNet folks have responded to pleas to make the episode available for all (even those of us who don’t have it on their cable system!). The entire episode is now available here<\/a> through next Wednesday only<\/i>! Get it while it’s full, free and hot!<\/p>\n

Otherwise, it’s also available here via iTunes for $1.99<\/a> according to Mr. Rather who was nice enough to let me know on the Twitters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For folks with shorter attention spans, or those who need a little more encouragement, Rather blogs about the episode here<\/a>, and here’s a 2.5 minute video clip<\/a> featuring the great Frank Heindel, patriot Election Integrity advocate of South Carolina, who is (as he notes in comments below<\/a>), the one alluded to when the description above says “one American’s fight against voting machines in his state.”<\/p>\n
