California takes the testing of voting machines very seriously
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
Sacramento boasts that it is the site of the first summit on voting machine tests in the U.S., as the state has hired a computer hacker to demonstrate the vulnerability of the latest machines made by Diebold Election Systems to tampering.
A state-sanctioned attempt at hacking one brand of electronic voting machines will not occur Wednesday, Secretary of State Bruce McPherson said Monday at what's billed as the nation's first summit on voting machine testing.
The hacker, a computer security expert from Finland, needs more time to prepare before trying to show that the latest voting machine model made by Diebold Election Systems is vulnerable to attacks by hackers.
California and its 58 local election officials face a Jan. 1 deadline to comply with requirements imposed by the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002.
