Company to pay for election problems
http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060823/NEWS01/608230477

Nebraska-based firm also will provide extra support and training for fall voting
By Theodore Kim

A Nebraska company whose voting equipment led to numerous problems during Indiana's May primary has agreed to pay the state $245,000 and provide extra hands-on and technical support this fall.

...

"The primary election was a disaster for this company," said Johnson County Clerk Jill Jackson.

...

Marion County Clerk Doris Anne Sadler said county officials would continue on their own to pursue compensation from ES&S because of primary setbacks.
The county complained about the company in 2004. Sadler said things have changed little since then.
"There's a serious problem with this company," she said. "Their performance (in the primary) was absolutely abysmal."

That's for starters.
