Another e-voting scam emerges

In August, the people of Venezula will excercise their constitutional right to a recall referendum on the presidency of Charvez, hero to some, villian and dictator to others.

This recall referendum will be of interesting as it will see the first full scale use of e-voting in Latin America.

The election will be run through touch screen computers with no paper trail.

The software has yet to be tested and has never been used in any election before, not even in the local elections.

The company running it is a group of Venezualans operating from an apartment in Florida.

This company is partially owned by the Venezuluan government, which has appointed partisan members to the board of the company.

Some how I cannot see Charvez losing this one
