Diebold Leaks 2008 Election Results

Posted by samzenpus on from the vote-early-vote-often dept.

samzenpus writes "With all the scrutiny that Diebold has received in past few years you'd think that they would be more careful but apparently due to a malfunction in some machines, they have leaked the results to the 2008 presidential race early. Hopefully this will be the nail in Diebold's coffin. Surely we have another company in this country that can run a sham election better."

    What is this, April Fool's Day? Don't waste our time with this trash.

    Not as long as some with 4 digit UIDs but enough years and enough karma to burn to know amusing stories show up but they are amusing REAL stories. It's a small step from this to amusing-crap-found-on-youtube. I spend more time on Digg these days because of the higher turnover rate for stories, but I stay with /. because it promotes real stories of real news and promotes real discussion. This example, however, was blatant ego spamming by an editor.
