Set aside the numbers
if you must....... that still leaves the CEO of Diebold

Diebold's CEO, Wally Odell, who was moonlighting as a Republican fundraiser. In his invitation to a benefit for Bush last August, wrote, "I am committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president."
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/07/28/sunday/main632436.shtml

I take Odell at his word he said he would deliver and he did.
He has the ability to shape elections through vote tampering
as does any black box voting company.

then there's the sordid history of ES&S

"Who are these corporate lackies with the money who are handling our vote. Well it's not a large crowd and the brothers Urosevich would be a good place to start. Bob and Todd Urosevich started ES&S with funding from the Ahmanson Family. Then Bob left ES&S and went to run and program for Diebold while Todd remained CEO of ES&S. They say those that control the software control the vote. “Those who cast the votes decide nothing."

Vested interests: ES&S was given its grubstake (while operating under the name American Information Systems) in 1984 when the billionaire Ahmanson family injected enough cash to get ahold of a 68 percent ownership. (2) This wealthy family has been instrumental in making the Republican Party take a hard right turn — pouring money into conservative Christian candidates and right-wing agendas.(3)

the voting division of Diebold is a subsidiary. It used to go under the name of Global Elections Systems, out of Mckinney Texas, actually they were out of Canada but they called themselves out of Mckinney, Texas. Diebold, what they did was they bought this small company in Texas and kind of, they didn't really merge it in particularly they just let it continue to run in Mckinney,Texas with all its same people, its same software and so forth. But the Diebold company itself is interesting, it does have very strong Republican ties, specifically to the Bush administration.

I don't need to be hit over the head with a hammer to see what the fuck is going on here but it's pretty amazing the how many do.

What more do they want from Wally an RSVP to the writing of the proprietary code that records the vote but no one is allowed to
authenticate as fraud free.
