Ohio Faces Severe Electoral Problems Ahead of November Elections

HeadlineAug 17, 2006

Here in the United States, a new government-commissioned report is warning of severe electoral problems in Ohio’s most populous county. According to the Election Science Institute, problems in Cuyahoga County are so widespread it’s unlikely they’ll be fixed by November — or even by the next presidential election. The report singles out voting machines manufactured by the company Diebold. Poll workers have had difficulty operating the machines, absentee ballots have gone uncounted, and the machine’s vote totals have not added up.
