"It's been all downhill for Howard Dean since he lost the New
Hampshire primary by a significant margin. But, now questions are
being raised about the security of New Hampshire's voting system in
the wake of a recent analysis of the election results. It could add
up to nothing, but it does underscore how easily technology can be
used to sabotage the voting process...

Recently some people have been asking if the 2004 New Hampshire
primary was rigged.

Martin Bento published online an interesting analysis of New
Hampshire's election results based on the voting systems used.* It's
been getting a lot of attention. According to Bento, Howard Dean lost
to John Kerry by only 1.6% when the ballots were hand-counted, 9.7%
when ES&S optical scanners were used, and 14.7% on Diebold scanners."
