138. Wichita County, Texas
ES&S was called into Wichita County, Texas to "fix" the punch card counter. Apparently the straight party votes hadn't been counted and there was also double counting. The ES&S supervisor was Mike Menkin but the programmer who was on site for several days is not named except as a "she":

The county remedied the problem Wednesday night with the help of a computer programmer from Elections Systems and Software, the county's software provider.

Gossom said the programmer alleviated the counting problem by re-entering all the program information and increasing the test parameters to allow for the testing of more areas.

"ESS did a wonderful job. There are no problems with the results," Martin said about the fix.
