Here's a thread on it, from this morning:

That's Albuquerque, by the way. The short story is, they're showing the wrong candidates after people make their selections, on the preview, regardless who you vote for. These aren't Diebold machines, either. They're the same Sequoia machines that are being used in many places that used them as a second choice when the Diebold equipment proved too buggy.

Whether deliberate or not (and I'm willing to allow it may be stupidity and incompetence, not ill will), it still stinks. HAVA was just a way of making money for voting machine makers. It should have been called the 'Help America Vote For Bush* Act,' it's so nakedly opportunistic and has provided very little positive change.
