21. Skipping over your incoherent and ridiculous (deflecting) piffle ...
Again, you wrote:

But apart from CA's former SoS, Kevin Shelley, and the future SoS, Debra Bowen, I can't think of any other SoS that has given Diebold and the balance of the vendors nearly as hard a time.

He could have certified all this junk a long time ago but kept pushing it off, forced vendors to clean-up a bit before dinner, and helped counties use paper in a number of instances and generally cite questions about e-voting.

And my guess is that nationally, a lot of BoE's were watching, and therefore hesitated or outright refused Diebold purchases.


That is nothing but white-washing bullshit.

Now you want change the subject and discuss the tests? I took issue with what you posted in reply #2. I’m not interested in any deflections from that.


In whose eyes wasn’t Shelley exonerated? All they could dig up on him appeared to be paperwork improperly filed by his office. They portrayed his distribution of a pamphlet about voters’ right as being a misuse of funds. The pamphlet informed voters that they had the right to use paper ballots if they were uneasy about the machines. The pamphlet had Shelley’s photo on it. In light of that, why would anyone want to pretend that he was guilty of a crime?

I never said that Shelley decertified all Diebold machines. I said he decertified some of them. (You earlier claimed that he decertified software only.)

You fear inaccurate information? Then stop posting inaccurate information.

You don’t want to piss me off? Then stop slamming Kevin Shelley and praising McPherson.
