► No Ohio County used Diebold Electronic Voting Machines (See Press Release Below) Ohio did not use modern electronic voting machines in this election. Six counties use an older form of electronic voting, which has a means of verifying the accuracy of the vote. In 69 Ohio Counties, punch card ballots were used. (July 16 Press Release) Blackwell Halts Deployment Of Diebold Voting Machines For 2004 July 16, 2004 COLUMBUS - Ohio Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell today halted deployment of Diebold Election Systems' electronic voting devices in Ohio for the 2004 General Election. The decision is based on preliminary findings from the secretary of state's second round of security testing conducted by Compuware Corporation showing the existence of previously identified, but yet unresolved security issues. Hardin, Lorain and Trumbull counties had selected to use new Diebold equipment this November. Those counties will use their current voting devices in 2004. "As I made clear last year, I will not place these voting devices before Ohio's voters until identified risks are corrected," Blackwell said. "Diebold Election Systems has successfully addressed many, but not all, of the problems that were identified in our first security review. The lack of comprehensive resolution prevents me from giving county boards of elections a green light for this November.

It won't happen
This is good and everything seeing that it implies there is a reasonable chance that Kerry could win.. But until it is absolutely certain, kerry WILL NOT retract. I can guarantee this.. if he retracts his concession and it turns out he doesen't win he will be under so much scruinity.. even if not during the process.. the media will attack him for being a sore loser not being able to let go and acting out on this during a war.. it will not be good..

4. that is from the official site of the OH dem party...
I won't comment on anything else, but this caught my eye:

No Ohio County used Diebold Electronic Voting Machines (See Press Release Below) Ohio did not use modern electronic voting machines in this election. Six counties use an older form of electronic voting, which has a means of verifying the accuracy of the vote. In 69 Ohio Counties, punch card ballots were used.

So the e-vote machines in Ohio ARE auditable. That's the first time I've seen that mentioned anywhere (though I might've missed it).
