Need some assistance from this Forum --

[DeepModem Mom]

I posted an article in LBN about a recent development re. Maryland and Diebold, and someone has just pointed out correctly that when you read the whole article, there's more there than the headline and first few paragraphs indicate. I thought someone here, with more knowledge than I, could possibly post the story, without the restrictions in LBN. Here's a link to the post:

WP: Maryland's Diebold Voting Machines Had Defective Part

1. That is precisely the same explanation that was given for the last minute patch in GA in 2002

2. You're kidding! No, you're not. nt

3. Have read the article now.. what help do you want?

[DeepModem Mom]

5. I just thought this information should be posted...

in a place other than LBN where the subject line could reflect better the meat of the article. I'm not so familiar with the ins and outs of election reform issues, and thought someone might post the information from the article here in this forum.

Thank you for reading the article, and for your reply!

6. Update: It looks like, al, that the original LBN post...

has made it to the Greatest Page, so it's getting attention. Thanks for your offer of help, but I think the problem has solved itself!

Best regards,

DMM
