Daily Voting News For August 6, 2007
Guest Blogged by John Gideon of VotersUnite.org
California county election officials are now beginning to speak up and speak out against the decisions made in the state with regards to their voting systems.

No one can dispute the source code review reports that show all of the systems to be failures. Also missing is any discussion about the lack of accessibility of the DRE voting machines.
