Critics punch at touch-screen voting security
Cox defends technology
Cathy Cox looks at a Diebold AccuVote TS machine and sees the future of voting.
Georgia's secretary of state gushes over its high-tech features, which she says have significantly lowered the number of uncounted votes and the possibility of election fraud.
(snip)
Some critics suspect the machines might have played a role in the surprise defeats in 2002 of two Democrats — Gov. Roy Barnes and U.S. Sen. Max Cleland.
 (snip)
 
In October, the Fulton County Elections Board sent Cox a letter that asked pointed questions about the security of Georgia's voting machines. The state's largest county uses 2,975 machines. Harry MacDougald, a Republican board member, wrote the letter after hearing about Rubin's report.
 
Cox wrote a six-page response explaining the procedures in place to ensure the machines cannot be manipulated.
 (smell a rat yet?)
The Fulton board replied Dec. 1, telling Cox she had alleviated members' concerns. 
"I feel reasonably comfortable," MacDougald said recently. "There's always a theoretical possibility . That can never be excluded, regardless of the voting technology. But the measures that were previously in place, with the new measures and technical fixes that are being made, bring the issue within a reasonable degree of security."
