Electronic Voting Machines: Threat or Menace?

Highly recommended reading: a new article (in PDF format) entitled Analysis of an Electronic Voting System by Kohno, Stubblefield, Rubin, and Wallach. It's mentioned in an article on the perils of electronic voting systems in today's NY Times.

Is it any surprise that Senator Hagel (R-Nebraska) has financial ties to ES&S, a company that makes more than half the electronic voting machines in the U.S., and a company that will probably play a significant role in the 2004 selections, er, elections? Posted by brian at July 24, 2003 02:33 PM
