Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 ***GOOD NEWS FROM MARK HULL-RICHTER BREAKING: LEGAL ACTION TO BE FILED IN CALIFORNIA TO 'HALT USE OR PURCHASE OF DIEBOLD VOTING MACHINES' IN STATE! Lawsuit to Name Sec. of State Bruce McPherson, Alleges 'Severe Security Risk', Noncompliance with HAVA's Disabled-Voting Provisions, and Violation of CA State Law! The BRAD BLOG can now reveal that a legal action will be filed tomorrow morning in California's Superior State Court in San Francisco in response to Secretary of State Bruce McPherson's recent re-certification -- in blatant violation of state law -- of Diebold's Electronic Voting Machines in the state. VoterAction.org is announcing their intention to file their suit " aimed at halting the use or purchase of Diebold electronic voting systems, " in the state. According to VoterAction, the legal action is being filed because " Diebold's TSx touch screen voting system is a severe security risk, and does not accommodate all disabled voters as required by law. " They also add that that " The Diebold system is difficult if not impossible to audit or recount, and has been proven vulnerable to malicious tampering in tests and studies. Diebold technology contains 'interpreted' code, which is easily hacked, and illegal for voting systems in the State of California. " The same group recently carried out a similar action in the state of New Mexico, in regard to the use of Sequoia Touch-Screen voting machines there. That suit ultimately led to the ban of use of such machines, and a bill which was recently signed by Gov. Bill Richardson requiring a paper ballot with every vote cast in the state...
