NY: 50 Percent of Sequoia Voting Machines Flawed

[Juha-Matti Laurio <juha-matti.laurio () netti fi>]

"New York state is in the process of replacing its lever voting machines with new voting equipment,
but the state revealed recently that it has found problems with 50 percent of the roughly 1,500 ImageCast optical-scan 
machines (shown in the video above) that Sequoia Voting Systems has delivered to the state so far
-- machines that are slated to be used by dozens of counties in the state's September 9 primary and November 4 
presidential election.

Douglas Kellner, co-chair of the New York State Board of Elections, expressed frustration with the vendor,
saying it appeared that Sequoia was using the state's acceptance testing process to find problems with its machines in 
lieu of a sound quality-control process."
