Marion County Clerk Accuses ES&S of Lying
http://www.wishtv.com/Global/story.asp?S=1799902"Sadler accused the company that supplies the county's voting equipment, Election Systems and Software (ES&S) of lying and a cover-up. ES&S? on-site project manager, Wendy Orange, blew the whistle on her employer. Orange informed Sadler last Friday that ES&S installed illegal software for the November election, and recently replaced it with legal software."
I think they got their illegal/legals messed up. I thought from hearing this on TV that it was OK and then the company came in and replaced the software with a non-approved version.
There has been other weird stuff, too.
So the channel 8 website has a poll. Something like:
1) I am confident in voting
2)I am doubtful about voting
3)I'm not going to vote
The implication being that the whole process is such a mess - why bother.
It all seems very bad.
