Comment : | There is already good reason to distrust voting machine insiders. There are documented cases of convicted felons being employed as executives at voting machine companies. There is also no system in place requiring background checks of personnel in the voting system industry. A criminal history that would disqualify an individual from caring for patients at a nursing home would not disqualify the same individual from serving as a voting system designer, programmer, technician, or vendor executive.
