Groups demand voting machines with paper trail (Diebold protest,Canton,Oh)
“Diebold Devours Democracy"

Good work protestors!!! BBV activists have made this a big issue.

Note that Jeff Seemann is a tireless liberal activist who is running for US Congress against long-serving GOP Ralph Regula. We could sure use a few more guys like him around!

......excerpt..........
The core of the group demonstrated for about two hours. Before the shareholders’ meeting began, some protesters complained about being shoved aside to the grass and the edge of the parking lot by university officials.

A few minutes later, three protesters were invited into the building to meet with Diebold CEO and Chairman Walden O’Dell for five minutes before the shareholders’ meeting.

“You should be the guy who sets the standard,” Jeff Seemann told O’Dell, urging him to add some sort of paper trail to the machines Ohio plans to buy from the company.

Seemann, a Democrat who is running for the U.S. House 16th District seat against incumbent Ralph Regula, said such a trail is the only thing that will ensure security.
