Florida Gov. Bush Expresses Concern About State Election Systems in Light of Leon County Hack Test
Counters Previous Positions by both the Acting Secretary of State and Voting Machine Company Diebold

Over the weekend, at least two reports out of mainstream Florida papers -- one in the Miami Herald and one in the Tallahassee Democrat -- report that Gov. Jeb Bush himself is now questioning the reliability of Florida's electronic voting system in light of the recent hack test in Leon County, home of the state's capitol Tallahassee. That security test, carried out last week, successfully flipped the results of a simple mock election test held on Diebold, Inc. voting equipment. The hack, which changed the results of an election from 2-6 to 7-1, left no trace of evidence behind.

After reports of the test were released, Florida's Sec. of State's office had initially criticized the messenger, Leon County's Director of Elections, Ion Sancho, suggesting that the matter was not the state's concern, but rather was an issue between Diebold and the county. That, despite the fact that it was the state of Florida who had certified the particular Diebold made machinery for use in the Sunshine State.

Diebold, predictably, also attempted to blame Sancho for the test results. Bush now seems to disagree, along with Sancho who comments on the attacks as well...

1. Yeah, because Democrats might hack it

Andy Stephenson for Governor with 2600 votes!

Satirical riff.

[Up2Late]

2. Oh BROTHER!

I'm sure Jeb is concerned. Concerned that it might be found out that his election was a fraud too, before he can make off to the Cayman Islands with his stolen Millions.

3. why, because were onto his IT guys?

[Walt Starr]

4. Jeb is probably more concerned about his ASS

since it;s coming to light he helped his brother STEAL two elections.

10. Great points!

Reminds me of all the "evidence" the NYT had that Iraq had no WND. There wasn't any, then all of a sudden after the DSM, they acted like there were tons of stories tearing the WMD theories apart. I remember a really good drawing (I think from the WP) about that.

13. No. It's a conspiracy expose.

7. Well, you know what they say. The best defense is a good offense.

[FreedomAngel82]

11. Oh yeah

I'm sure he's so concerned about it. :sarcasm: Ugh. Asshole. He helped Bush steal the election and knows damn well about it so Jeb can just fuck off. He doesn't give a damn. Only to point the finger at someone else.
