“The problem with computer-assisted voting systems was that they centralized the opportunity for fraud.” - ES&S vice president Gary Greenhalgh in a NY Times article.

Interesting to note that Greenhalgh got his start in the election business under Ransom Shoup (convicted on felony bribery counts in 1979.) Oh, and Greenhalgh’s employer in 1999 (MicroVote, where he worked as national sales director)sent $130k in bribery payments to an election official in Mecklenburg County.

And take a guess what company’s machines are used in most NC counties.

ES&S’s Ivotronic.

Yeah... I recall being at a Halloween party several years ago, the only conservative there, and they were shocked that I was as strongly opposed to these no-confirmation electronic systems as all the liberals were. In theior experience, it was the Republicans pushing for them...they didn't really understand the difference between Republican and conservative.
