As
expected today’s news is mostly from California in
response to the “Top-To-Bottom” Review. In their
response to the California “Top-To-Bottom Review”
Sequoia had this to say about accessibility, “As for the
Accessibility report, Sequoia’s equipment complies with
all requirements of the current 2002 VVSG as well as all
California state requirements. Sequoia has worked with both
national and local accessibility groups to design our
voting system and we continue to do so in an effort to make
all of our voting equipment as accessible as possible and
continually improve our products as advances are made in
technology to better assist persons with disabilities”.
The fact that they can say their machines comply with all
requirements is amazing. The Sequoia Edge I and II tested
in California has a toe-to-knee distance of 26.5 inches.
The 2002 VVSG require 30 inches minimum. We can’t expect
either of the other two vendors to be any more factual in
their defense of their systems....
