House Rules Committee Hearing on The Hazards of Electronic Voting: Focus on the Machinery of Democracy, February 7, 2007.

  • Opening Statement – The Honorable Dianne Feinstein – Chairman, Senate Committee on Rules and Administration: “Just last week, Florida Governor Charlie Christ announced plans to abandon the electronic touch-screen voting systems used in many of Florida’s counties and adopt a system of casting paper ballots counted by scanning machines. Other states are considering similar plans. And I believe it is time that Congress also considers necessary safeguards for all federal elections.”
