NIST Voting Systems Workshop
The National Institute of Standards and Technology will be hosting a workshop on Threats to Voting Systems in Gaithersburg, Maryland tomorrow. The agenda may be found here. This workshop promises to be an excellent opportunity to focus on the risks inherent in the use of different types of voting technology, including electronic voting machines, electronic voting machines with contemporaneous paper records (aka, VVPATs), precinct-count optical scan, and ballot-marking devices. I'm on my way to Maryland now, and probably won't be blogging again until Sunday or Monday.
On the advocacy side, the Center for Policy Alternatives, Demos and Common Cause will be hosting an election reform conference for state legislators in Columbus on Friday and Saturday. - posted by Dan Tokaji @ 10:58 AM
