Black Box Voting: Rep. Robert Ney of Ohio stops HR 2239

-----------------------------
Growing concern in the U.S. about the potential for one's vote to be changed without their knowledge in the upcoming 2004 presidential elections has sparked a rapidly expanding movement to correct the course of events. The Voter Confidence and Increased Accessibility Act of 2003 (H.R. 2239) , represents one such response, but Rep. Robert Ney, chairman of the House committee that would propose the bill, opposes it, so its future is in doubt. Interestingly, Ney is a Republican representing Ohio, the home state of Diebold.

I was thinking they are staggered. So Tom Delay is up in 2004 too.
