The proposed Sarasota software audit team looks good [View All]

[eomer]

The team proposed by Yasinsac includes several computer scientists who have a proven track record of exposing specific problems in e-voting systems and of opposing paperless e-voting and are nationally prominent election reform advocates. Specifically, Ed Felten, David Wagner, and Matt Bishop (Michael Shamos has been a proponent of paperless e-voting so I don't include him on the list). If the team goes forward as proposed and these three are allowed to do their job freely then we can have a good chance of getting to the truth about the iVotronic machines.

Here's the proposed team:

The following members shall comprise the initial team of the principal investigators:
Alec Yasinsac, Associate Professor, Computer Science Department, Florida State University
Mike Burmester, Professor, Computer Science Department, Florida State University
Breno de Medeiros, Assistant Professor, Computer Science Department, Florida State University
Ed Felten, Professor, Computer Science Department, Princeton University
Michael Shamos, Professor Computer Science Department, Carnegie-Mellon University
David Wagner, Associate Professor, Computer Science Division, University of California-Berkley [sic]
Matt Bishop, Associate Professor, Department of Computer Science, University of California-Davis
