It's official. Diebold is fundamentally broken.

Yesterday, Princeton researchers released the results of their investigations into a Diebold "accuvote" machine. They had a press release and everything. I'm guessing you didn't hear about it on the news. So, presented for your democratic (that's with a little-d) pleasure:

DailyKos has the story (Shame on you, those of you in the traditional media, for ignoring this story!)

And YouTube has the researchers' demo.

Read the story. Or just watch the video. If you give a damn (or even some small portion of a damn, howevermuch that works out to be) about how this nation is run, on behalf of yourself or your children or whomever, both should set off deeply distressing alarm bells for you.

Now then, if you haven't gone and changed your voting preference to receive an absentee ballot, what are you waiting for?
