| Comment : | The VSS should include minimum standards that states must also follow. Florida does not require NASED qualification and furthermore, in Florida, the decision as to which voting machines get certified rests in the hands of 1-2 individuals with no system of checks and balances or overisght in place. In addition, all certification records are in the hands of these same 1-2 individuals, who have now delayed a public information request for almost 3 months. Florida also allows the insertion of state-developed or state-owned software into voting systems, again with no oversight or regulation as to what that software may or may not contain. | |
