Black Magic Voting

Black Box Voting is reporting that the internal logs of 40 or more electronic voting machines reveal several anomalies in the 2004 presedential election. Black Box sucessfully sued former Palm Beach County, FL supervisor of elections Theresa LePore to obtain these logs. One thing to note is that these were not the Diebold machines we have all heard of, but were produced by Sequoia Voting Systems. Some of the anomalies include votes being cast before and after polls were closed and one machine being powered off and on 128 times during the election.

Now, I won't jump to the conclusion that these log anomalies were done with malicious intent, but it is something that needs to be investigated. Blackbox.org has invested over $7,000 just to obtain these logs, which took 9 months to obtain. I encourage you to explore more of Blackboxvoting.org (not blackboxvoting.com) as they have several other interesting stories and appear to be very non-partisian.
