Good News for Election IntegrityPosted on Jan 5, 2007
California’s incoming secretary of state, Debra Bowen, says her office will conduct “a top to bottom review of every voting system in use anywhere in California.” What’s more, Bowen has indicated she is willing to decertify machines approved by her predecessor, Bruce McPherson. We can only hope Bowen’s investigation will spark a national trend.

Here is some interesting experience getting to the bottom with electronic voting issues in Cook County in Chicago, using some advanced data forensics.

Asitje;
Report thisArnold S. didn’t need crooked voting machines to win re-election.
Der Gubernator is a quick study and, after having his head handed to him in the special election, trimmed his sails accordingly, started saying things the corrupt Calif. Democratic elite knew would “sell” in California. (Helps being married to a Shriver/Kennedy.) He’s hardly put a foot wrong in the progressive pose he’s assumed.
Having a charismatic “republican they can work with’” the dem leaders all but abandoned Angelides by September. (Arnold gives better photo op, anyway.)
I quit listening to Air America Radio (KQKE) because I got tired of hearing Willie Brown pimping Schwarzenegger and dissing Angelides.

Go Bwen go! Everyone kows(suspects) that all of these guys have nothing but trash. Open source is the way to go. That way all of us computer geeks can put our hands on it and find the corrupt republican leanings.
Go Bowen go!

I sure hope Bowen does as she’s campaigned, and promised! We’ve voted for her during the primary, and she won, then voted for her again against Machine-luvin’ McPherson, and she (duh) won again be*cause* she promised to do away with e-voting machines like Kevin Shelley rightfully had done.
However, I’m still “stumped” as to why Schwarzenegger’s “special election” went down in flames so devestatingly in November 2005 *before* McPherson could “re"certify the e-voting machines, yet he rose like a Phoenix out of the ashes of his defeat last November *after* Diebold/Others recertification.
Who was that famous person who said “there is no such thing as coincidence”?
