Comment : | 13. Voting machine companies are allowed to keep voting machines in there own warehouses after the machines have been sealed for elections, instead of keeping them locked away in publicly owned secure facilities. 14. Despite the fact that taxpayers have paid many millions of dollars for new voting machines, the manufacturers have spent as little as possible on the quality and reliability of new voting machines. They have used outmoded technology and poor quality control. There have been scores of machine breakdowns during elections, with uncertified repairs being made on the spot. They have been much more concerned with the price they have charged than delivering on what Americans have paid for.
