Black Box Voting



There is a free downloadable version of the book Black Box Voting (in pdf format) on this website. It outlines all the problems with electronic voting machines and how easily they are hacked. The author lists 100 instances where votes were counted incorrectly due to "glitches" in software.

"Diebold machines, and ones like them from other vendors, represent a major threat to our democracy. We have put our trust in the outcome of our elections into the hands of a few companies.

They are in a position to control the outcomes of our elections, and there's no way anyone can know if they, or someone working for them, did something underhanded. And meaningful recounts are impossible with these machines." -- Avi Rubin, a computer science professor at the Johns Hopkins University


There is an activist version of this website at www.blackboxvoting.org . It outlines how you can get involved to ensure your vote counts come November.
