Governor John Corzine of New Jersey has signed yet
another extension of the electronic voting paper
verification requirement for his state. Now citizens of New
Jersey will again vote in an election without any paper.
What the state needs to do is to get rid of their Sequoia
Advantage voting system and get an actual paper ballot
system that really works. Events in the state’s primary
election prove that the Advantage system may have actually
violated federal accuracy law (HAVA Section 301(a)(5)). No
vvpat printer would have fixed that problem.
According
to BlackBoxVoting.Org, while 4.3 million voters are
registered to vote in Indiana the state has recently purged
1.1 million voters from the voter rolls with one quarter of
that total coming from two counties. Those and other stories
