New AP wire story: Skeptical on E-voting (BBV) |
|
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/business/6964697.htmSpoke with writer Rachel Konrad this morning. She said she was quite surprised at the level of public awareness of this issue. Most people she interviewed were not at all confident that their vote was being properly recorded. Bev Harris

4. Since it's an AP story it should show up in many places |

It apparently at one time had links at the bottom to a Diebold site and a 'Black Box Voting site,' but they were not visible or active in the ABC web page.
Edit: realized Bev already pointed out that it's AP.
