From the Raleigh News and Observer today:
Voting machine maker leaves N.C.
Officials fear Diebold's move will hurt efforts to replace machines
Lynn Bonner, Staff Writer
One of the nation's largest voting machine companies will not sell new equipment in the state, increasing calls for changes in a law meant to make election results more reliable.
The law requires companies to disclose details about their machines' software, which Diebold Election Systems said it could not do. The company told the State Board of Elections on Wednesday it would not keep trying to sell its equipment here.
