Even if what you say is true(and others are disputing it)I don't see that it in any way contradicts my statement. Audit able and recount able is better than online. The fact that there were votes to argue in court about is still a step above "computer says Bush".

How do dba's and computer forensics ever solve any problems? >The fact that there were votes to argue in court about is still a step above "computer says Bush". A step above because you say so? I guess all those punch card machines that accepted and counted votes during the election probably were dismissed then since a computer gave an answer.
- josephlord 13y agoI'm not going into punch card machines. In the UK we write a cross in pencil on a bit of paper we can see and then put it in a box. As for auditing computer databases and software that is hard enough with computers you control but for elections the people operating the machine are one of the threats and the process needs to be verifiable by independent volunteers and the parties contesting the election.
