BBV: Gonna get good coverage in the UK tonight!

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

on Channel 4 News. Just got this e-mail about this evening's show:

DEMOCRACY IN TRACTION
**********************************

And VOTERGATE! Remember the hanging chads? The President elected by a minority of the votes cast? Well, goodbye chads, goodbye paper votes of any kind and hello to a new super dooooper electronic voting system. Trouble is that a nice middle aged, middle class voter fell into its controlling codes one day by trawling around on Google. In fact, the system is thoroughly hackable and it s possible to shift Republican numbers into Democrat columns etc..and, oh, just by the way, the company that got the contract to pioneer and run this sumptuous system gave George Bush's campaign $100,000. This is revealing stuff about the world's leading democracy at a moment when that self-same democracy is bound upon exporting democracy elsewhere. Is the system safe? Is it foolproof? The answer lies on Channel Four News tonight and it is a very worrying one. This is exclusive, remarkable and unmissble. Be there or be square like some perforated hanging chad, ignored in the next count!


The show should be available to watch online sometime after 8pm (which I think is 3pm EST) at:

1. I hope 60 Minutes takes note...

We deserve to have an investigate piece in prime time on that issue right here in the USA!

3. It was a fantastic piece

They led the news with it (which is rare for a "feature" & especially when Blunkett's statement to the House on immigration has led everywhere else) & it lasted about 20 minutes. Covered everything, from Georgia's election last year to the Maryland study with California's lack of certification thrown in for good measure. Had an interview with that guy ex-Diebold guy Rob (who I know Bev Harris wrote about) as well as several others I've seen mentioned here. Diebold's PR guy was the funniest -- totally squirmy.

Again, I recommend everyone to watch it when it's up online (via the "Latest show" link).

5. Arse! The buggers changed it.

The last show used to be online free for 24hours after transmission.

Sorry about that :(

Maybe some enterprising Brit somewhere encoded it ...
