ES&S and DIEBOLD
Thu, November 4, 2004 - 8:53 PMIs anyone else using ES & S? What kind of problems are you experiencing?
Looks like our new RCV voting system is experiencing some snags:
www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi
It broke down yesterday and the company that made the software, Election Systems & Software, Inc., has had problems with its software in the past, in a state none other than...Florida:
www.disinfopedia.org/wiki.phtml
One thing I didn't know until now - ES&S was founded by the current programmer and CEO Of DIEBOLD!
"Prior to programming for and taking over Diebold Election Systems, Urosevich programmed for and was CEO of Election Systems & Software (ES&S), which counts 56 percent of the votes in the United States. When Urosevich left ES&S, Chuck Hagel took his position. (Hagel then ran for the U.S. Senate, with ES&S machines counting his own votes, but failed to disclose that he had been both CEO and Chairman of ES&S on his disclosure documents).
Bob Urosevich, together with his brother Todd, founded ES&S. Bob then went to run Diebold, while Todd still is a Vice President at ES&S. Diebold and ES&S, together, count about 80 percent of the votes in the United States."

Re: Ohio voting machine error
Sat, November 6, 2004 - 1:17 AM"Franklin County's [Ohio] unofficial results had Bush receiving 4,258 votes to
Democrat John Kerry's 260 votes in a precinct in Gahanna. Records show only
638 voters cast ballots in that precinct."

Sixteen of the sixteen Associated Press late exit polls (fifteen of sixteen early exit polls) were contradicted by the result--all results went to Bush. This indicates a systematic error, either in the polling or/and the voting system.

Something fishy is in the air, which warrants opening up those black boxes if for no other reason than to ease public concern.
There is statistical evidence:
synapse.princeton.edu/~sam/pollcalc.html
There is also anecdotal evidence:
"Matt Zimmerman, an attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, said
many voters had reported that machines recorded votes for Republican
candidates while they had been trying to select a Democrat. It was possible
to fix the problem in most cases."
