Microsoft Works to Reverse NYS Election Law Re: Electronic Voting Machines

Cross-posted on The Albany Project

Slashdot today posted a link to a blog by Bo Lipari, the Executive Director of New Yorkers for Verified Voting, which discusses a document floating around the state senators offices regarding changes that Microsoft and Election Voting Machine Manufacturers want to make to current election law.  The changes involve rolling back the requirement that voting machines must provide source code to be reviewed by the state to verify voting results are accurate in case there's a challenge in an election.

Even worse, they're attaching it to the bill that needs to be passed this week in order for NY to have its Presidential Primary moved to February 5th.

Read on for the proposed changes.
