Daily Voting News, Dec. 11, 2004

 

In Nevada, there are still questions being asked, including why are there so many undervotes on Sequoia machines (a problem that we find all over when Sequoia machines are being used). Ohio is preparing to slowly get into the recount and people are talking about fixing some of the problems they made. In Washington, after two machine counts, hand-counting is revealing more votes. In New Mexico it seems that attempts to get started into the recount are being stonewalled.
