Call the NH Secretary of State and ask for a rehearing concerning approved use of Diebold optical scanners in NH: (603) 271-3242
As a voter and citizen of New Hampshire I believe we need a rehearing of the Ballot Law Commission's approval of Diebold voting equipment in New Hampshire. The rights of roughly 80% of New Hampshire citizens, whose votes are counted by Diebold optical scanners, to have their vote fairly counted may be violated at any time where Diebold optical scanners are used.
Diebold computerized voting machines are the only voting machines approved for use in the state, approved by the Commission last March, despite overwhelming testimony and scientific data proving the inability of Diebold to guarantee the integrity of New Hampshire election results.
On March 10, 2006, Diebold vendor John Silvestro, acknowledged to the Commission significant defects in the product, which he claimed Diebold would be correcting, and he would return to the Commission for approval of the corrected software. This has not occurred. The Commission hearing, with Silvestro's testimony, may be viewed here: http://www.democracyfornewhampshire.com/node/view/2682
Commissioner Cook suggested the development of risk mitigation procedures. Commissioner Chandler suggested that the legislature and the Ballot Law Commission "have some work to do" to reduce the risks from using Diebold optical scanners. This has not occurred.
Not just a NH problem!!!!!
