Florida won't require printouts of touch-screen
California will require that its touch-screen voting machines provide paper
printouts for each ballot cast, but Florida's top elections official says she does
not favor a similar standard here.

California Secretary of State Kevin Shelley's recent paper-trail edict is
scheduled to take effect by 2006. The action in the nation's largest state --
and America's largest market for new voting hardware -- hands a potentially
precedent-setting victory to opponents of paperless electronic voting.

2. Republican counties already have touch screens with print-outs.
So I guess Jebbie has no intention to follow the Supreme Court's ruling that the voting should be the same in all Florida counties.

Personally, I think he should be held in contempt of court.
