Comments on: After a reboot, does my e-vote count?

When Kevin Ho of CNET's Blog Network tried to use a voting machine in the California primary, up came Sequoia's red screen of death. Then a poll worker gave it a good slap.

Too bad it wasn't the general elections...then you could blame it on the Republicans and call the ACLU with allegations of vote-tampering... </sarcasm>

You can't touch pixels or a XML line.
Although behind glass (plexiglass?), the paper slip is only tangible record of your right/privilege.
(Perhaps when we're all wired to the Matrix, one could feel the datum moving from brain to server ... ?)

There is no connection between what is printed and what is in memory. These voting machines run on Windows CE they are not your IPHONE ; they are low tech door stops. I love my Archos 605 but I wont vote on it. By the way taking pictures of your vote is illegal in FL..my guess is not legal most places due to vote selling.
