Company to Pay for Election Problems
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."
It's amusing to see that while the Bush admin. is busy harvesting more profits for the oil companies owned by the Bush family (and co.), while the American people are busy with the high rates of oil & lack of jobs.
It's even more funny, that a company previously accused of forging (or aided in) the election results, is set to pay/donate (read the article) $245k only!
So that's the price of America? $245k?
And Bush was elected twice!
I never expected the American people to keep their heads low and not do anything about this.
(War on terrorism? Really? heh)
