3. Microvote lost lawsuit to PA over defective machines
MicroVote loses court appeal
MARGARET GIBBONS, For The Reporter
02/28/2003

NORRISTOWN – For Montgomery County voters‚ MicroVote electronic voting machines are just a fading nightmare. For county taxpayers‚ those machines are the subject of years of costly litigation.

However‚ that litigation soon may be over. The U.S. District Court of Appeals this week ruled in favor of the county‚ upholding a federal court jury award of $1.05 million in damages to the county.

In addition to the $1.05 million that the federal jury awarded to the county in November 2001‚ the county also had secured a $600‚000 out-of-court settlement from Carson Manufacturing Co. Inc.
