Diebold Threatened With Lawsuit

Posted on September 8, 2004

Wired reports that California Attorney General Bill Lockyer has threatened to sue Diebold for defrauding California by making false claims about their electronic voting product. Lockyer says the claims and aggressive marketing by Diebold have led to the installment of e-voting machines that were never properly tested.

There has also been a growing concern over the fact that there is no paper trail in many states for voters to confirm their vote. The Computer Ate My Vote website maintains an ongoing list of states using the controversial voting machines. California and Nevada have already passed legislation requiring a paper print-out.
