Do you trust computerized voting machines?

Join Samantha this Saturday as she welcomes Roger Johnston, Ph.D. ,CPP; head of the Vulnerability Assessment Team at Argonne National Laboratory, as they discuss the “accuracy” and “safety” of electronic voting machines.

Nov 6: Jonathan D Simon on counting the votes – update
Nov 6th, 2010 by Sam

It’s morning in Massachusetts and we’ve proven ourselves to be the good liberal contrarians that we knew we were, Scott Brown notwithstanding! (I do wonder if he would have been elected if he was homely. But I digress.)

However, just before the election we spoke with Jonathan D Simon of the Election Defense Alliance who does forensic analysis on vote counting. Do the electronic voting machines count votes properly? Accurately? These guys look at everything – they compare hand counted votes with machine votes. Compare historical voting patterns. Look at exit polling data vs actual results.

What they have found is that Republicans consistently do better with machines in closely contested elections. (yes, you read that right).

So, what happened in this last election??? Tune in to learn what they’ve found so far….
