Company to Pay for Election Problems

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the accountability-shouldn't-be-too-much-to-ask dept.

technoid_ writes to tell us the Indiana Star reports that Election Systems & Software has agreed to pay the Indiana State Government $245,000 in addition to extra hand-on and technical support in response to problems during the May primary. From the article: "The company, which has faced similar complaints in other states, reached a settlement with Arkansas officials Monday. In that deal, ES&S pledged services, training materials and technical support but offered no payment. Jackson, the Johnson County clerk, said the company "has done a 360" since the primary. ES&S officials have been more assertive in preparing for the fall elections. The instructional materials, she said, also will help."

    That headline's too long. It should have been "Company to Pay for Election". Oh wait. That's not exactly newsworthy, is it?
