Diebold Has Uncertified Code in Every System in CA

Freedom-to-Tinker has the scoop on the latest with Diebold, from Kim Alexander at California Voter Foundation: Diebold was found Tuesday to have installed uncertified software in all 17 counties in California where they have voting systems.

    ...Secretary of State Kevin Shelley came into the meeting to address the panel and spoke very firmly and passionately about the need for voters to have confidence in elections. He also suggested that it is possible Diebold could be decertified in California altogether.

Obviously, at this point we can all agree that open verifiable code and paper trails are critical for the veracity public voting software systems. It's nice to know these issues are squarely on the radar of the Secretary of State's office.
