Controversy surrounds new voting machines
After the imbroglio of 2000, states and counties quickly
embraced a technical solution: electronic voting machines. This
year 50 million votes will be cast electronically. But critics
fear that e-voting will mire another presidential election in
ambiguous and contention-filled results. Will this pivotal
election be remembered, not for hanging chads, slim margins, and
recounts, but for inaccuracies due to computer crashes and data
corruption?
