Yesterday I testified at the CA Secretary of State's Voting Systems and Procedures Panel. My remarks are available online.
More information is available here:
Secretary of State's Report on March 2, 2004 Statewide Primary Election, and Diebold Investigation documents.
There are numerous stories about yesterday's events online; here are links to two of them:
