EXCLUSIVE: Federal Fraud Complaint Against Voting Machine Company Unsealed
After Two Years, the Qui Tam Suit against Hart InterCivic, brought by Whistleblower William Singer May Proceed After DoJ Declines to Join Case

"The most serious thing any software company can do is not fully test it's products," William Singer told The BRAD BLOG this afternoon about the federal fraud case he filed nearly two years ago, which has finally been unsealed by a judge as of today.

"To release a product for important purposes that has not been tested at all is quite shocking, I would say. Especially since it indicates that nobody can predict what, when, or how, it might fail," Singer explained about the e-voting systems made by Hart InterCivic, for whom he worked as a technician several years ago. "It would make a mockery of any certification."

Despite having some direct involvement in the case from the beginning, The BRAD BLOG has been unable to report any details on it going on two years --- we haven't even been able to offer the names of the plaintiff or defendant in the case --- since originally reporting that it had been filed in federal court, due to the fact that it was under seal, waiting on the U.S. Attorney General to decide whether the DoJ would join the suit or not.

As AP reported today, the seal on the the federal qui tam (fraud, false claims) complaint brought on behalf of the United States by Singer against Hart, one of the big four American voting machines companies, has now been lifted, and the case may finally proceed as originally filed.
Details, comments from Singer and attorneys on the case, along with the full complaint, are now available at the link below...

4. Another example of the politicization of our DoJ.

The integrity of our voting system ought to be one of DoJ's most important priorities. Instead, they decide based on partisan politics not to be party to this suit.

6. RFK, Jr. also filed a lawsuit against one or more e-voting corporations, and

was put under a similar gag--a long delay while the Bushite A.G. decided whether or not to risk exposure of Bush/Cheney's fraudulent election in 2004, and so many other fraudulent Bushbot elections using this "trade secret" voting technology, or whether they figured the danger was passed, they'd stolen enough of our money, etc., that they no longer cared if we found out.

I'd been wondering what happened to that RFK, Jr., lawsuit--and forgot that all parties had been similarly silenced.

Anybody know if the suit is still alive?
