  E Voting. It's Not Just A Conspiracy Theory Anymore. Lou Dobbs, of CNN, is running a series on e voting flaws. I can't get the video to go past the commercials. It'll be on Yahoo's list of videos if you don't catch it on Yahoo News' front page. Scoop has an account of the inner workings of the EAC ( US Election Assistance Commission. The news is also covered in the Brad Blog

I'll try to find the EAC's memos as well as the documentation chronicling the EAC's invitation to the NIST, asking them to join the IEEE's initiative to do the exact same thing that the IEEE had been doing. It wasn't that difficult to follow the progress of the IEEE. Where was the media coverage, especially in the light of the public mistrust in e voting? The IEEE was concerned about the switch to the EAC"S focus on the NIST's guidelines. The IEEE was also concerned with the EAC's lack of forward movement to complete the project. The machines use a code with huge holes opening up the possibility of hacking into the machines without being detected. These defects and other major defects, as well, are so obvious that I believe in the strong possibility that the holes were created intentionally.
