short version: it's a very long article but it does go over the issues of e-voting devices so of course i feel obliged to share it. long version here.
commentary: apparently, the germans and dutch mistrust e-voting just as much as i do.

The good thing about e-voting is that if the majority gets the election wrong, someone can go in there and correct it, and make sure the right person wins. It needn't be an ideological thing either. I think it shows the entrepreneurial spirit to offer the election to the highest bidder. They can televise the auction, like a sports event. -

I like the information you gave, lfbno7. If Edwards doesn't get the nomination, I will try going online, and see if that works.
