Thanks for the heads up, Dan! I hadn’t heard the SF segment but listened to it today. Dr. Shacham, the computer scientist, suggest using paper ballots (natch). The most amazing part was that during his testing he manipulated the machine without having access to the source code. That is scary.

Did you hear Hovav Shacham on Talk of the Nation – Science Friday today? He was talking about hackable machines and how to do verifiable voting right. I’d post the link, but I’m not sure if that’s encouraged.

I believe you meant State Election Coordinator Mark Goins, not Mark Brown. I can see why you would mistype, though, given your unapologetic love affair with him. Oh, and Mark Norris wasn’t in leadership when Jeff Miller had his day in the sun, so it wouldn’t have been him “handling” the situation, nor was Mike Faulk a senator during his media spotlight. I guess you want Ron and Mark to “handle” the Rick Petino fiasco as well?
