The gist is that the electronic voting machines provided by Election Systems and Software, which are used in 20 states (including CO and OH) appear to report different tallies when the same ballots are run through again. The screens can also be configured to record a touch in certain areas for a preferred candidate. Since the front panel configuration interface requires no password, it can be done by anyone that has purchased the necessary hardware online or has configured a palmpilot with infrared to do so.

 Isn't it interesting that we have all been using ATMs for at least 25 years now, and nobody gets to withdraw money at any one of them anywhere in the world without their account being accurately debited. That's because they have standards. Isn't it about time that we apply those same standards to voting machines?
