Leon County's Ion Sancho Believes Electronic Manipulation of Votes

Occurred in Florida's Contested Presidential Race!

 

Fallout Continues to Rock E-Voting World in Light of Recent Hack Demo

of Machines made by Diebold, Inc.

The " hack test " of a mock election using Diebold

voting equipment earlier this week in Leon County,

Florida -- in which results of the election were

completely flipped from 2-6 to 7-1 without even a

trail of evidence left behind -- has continued to send

shockwaves from Florida to Ohio to California and

everywhere else in between.

 

The Director of Elections in Leon County, Ian Sancho

reportedly proclaimed, after the stunning results of

last Tuesday's test, that he would never use Diebold

voting machines in any election in the county again.

 

Television news coverage began hitting last night in

Tallahassee, the Florida state capital, which also

happens to be in Leon County. And in a remarkable

admission, Sancho now says he believes that such a

hack occurred in the 2000 Presidential Election in

Volusia County, Florida.

 

-- Here's a link to that video coverage...

 

Elections officials in Volusia County, by the way, are

currently in the final throes of their decision of

whether to go with Diebold's hackable voting machines,

or whether they will go in a different direction. We

may have more on that later today.

 

States and Counties across the country are continuing

their last minute scramble to make decisions about new

voting equipment many of them hope to acquire and have

paid for by the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002.

The deadline for that decision is Jan 1, 2006 and yet

there are virtually no reliable Federal standards for

any of the available Voting Machines currently on the

market.

 

Litigation was filed against Diebold, Inc. earlier

this week in Federal District Court in a Class Action

Securities Fraud complaint based, in part, on their

attempts at disguising the vulnerabilities and flaws

of their Voting Machine equipment from investors.
