Diebold to Withdraw from E-Voting?

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the lots-of-polishing-to-do dept.

ICA writes "It appears after years of criticism, Diebold may be ready to withdraw from electronic voting entirely. The company is concerned that this relatively small and marginally profitable unit is hurting the company's overall image."

    My prediction: Donald Rumsfeld, possibly through a twisty maze of companies, all alike, will buy it up, and hire the same or worse neocon(vict)s to run it. Business as usual, just renamed as FairCountCo or the like. No money will be spent on fixes or even engineering, but a boatload of money will ago to newspaper editorial writers in redstate markets (Toledo, Lincoln, Butte, Bugtussle, etc.) And Jeb Bush will come surprisingly close to defeat, but will pull off a "victory" due to the surprise results from Southern Illinois.
