'Daily Voting News' For July 27, 2007

By JGideon

a collection of local, state, national and international articles on electronic voting and election issues

Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org Today I had to write two lede's for DVN. The California "Top-To-Bottom" Review reports were supposed to be released at Noon Pac.

There are presently two reports hosted at VotersUnite that discuss how the voting machine vendors who are trying to do business in New York state are not fit to do business according to state law. The other two reports discuss the cost of actually holding elections on optical-scan machines and with paper ballots. It does not have to be expensive and is certainly cheaper in the long-run when compared to using Direct Recording Electronic voting machines. ...
