21. Of course not.

When you centralize anything, you destroy any security. Hand it over to a single organization, regardless of ideology or anything else, and you have created a central point for problems.

I'm just giving you the facts as they exist in Georgia.

To answer your questions:
Does this school have a political or religious agenda?
Well, it was the home of Newt Gringrich's GOPAC

Is it private or public?
Public

Are they bi- or multi- partisan?
The Election Center is pro Cathy Cox (DEM) and Diebold.

Are the TS totals uploaded to GEMS too?
Of course.

Does KSU tabulate them on the GEMS servers?
No, in many instances, Diebold technicians are doing that in Georgia.

What kind of security do they have there, etc, etc, etc?
If they would answer those kinds of questions, we might be able to get the answers, but since they are funded entirely by the SoS they refer all questions to Cathy Cox, who refuses to answer by claiming "terrorists could use this security information to subvert the election process."

Perhaps this document will clear up any further questions you might have:

It was written by the KSU folks to sell the setup to other states.
