Fun and games with democracy.

Black Box Voting : 9-12-06: Election problems in the Sept. 12 primaries:
MILWAUKEE: Black Box Voting has received reports that poll workers in at least one Milwaukee location were opening the ballot boxes while the election was in progress.

MARYLAND: 238 polling places in Montgomery County couldn't operate the machines when the polls were supposed to open. The wrong ballots showed up on the screen. Twenty technicians who were supposed to set up electronic poll books quit.

WISCONSIN: Both the touch-screen and the optical scan machine made by Diebold had problems in at least one location in Oshkosh.

ARIZONA: Hand-recount procedures not cleared for touch screens because the secretary of state didn't submit procedures for review until too late.
And more. RTFA.
