Diebold Threatens Wary Voting Clerk

An anonymous reader writes "From the Salt Lake Tribune: a wary county clerk called in BlackBoxVoting.org to test the integrity of Diebold voting fraud machines, part of a recent $27 million statewide purchase (to make sure that only the "Right" candidates win). Diebold goon says machines are now jinxed and it may cost up to $40,000 to fly in a company witch-doctor to make sure there were no warranty violations. Since EVERY SINGLE VOTER who uses these machines is a potential hacker looking to alter election results, why is Diebold so concerned? "

    You know, everyday about 100,000 people place their lives in the trust of software 'black boxes' on planes and not a peep from the newly political geeks.


    You stupid fuck, the black boxes on planes can't cause the plane to crash, you are in no way placing any trust in them.

    A bad politico can get you killed, just ask the 3000 kids who wanted to do the right thing and go to college, or be all they could be.
