- MIAMI - DADE COUNTY, FL --
Voting glitches found in 6 recent elections --A computer error failed
to count votes during the March 8 special election, calling into question
five other local elections -- and the future of the county's elections
supervisor.
-
- Electronic voting machines tossed out hundreds of ballots
during this month's special election on slot machines -- and elections
workers have traced the same computer error to five other municipal elections
in the past 12 months. Raising the red flag: An alarmingly high number
of so-called ''undervotes'' in the March 8 election -- which only had one
item on the ballot.
-
- The reports of uncounted votes also bring renewed criticism
from those who have been wary of the paper-free electronic voting machines
-- an unsettling development for a county that had poured substantial resources
into escaping the chad-filled ghost of the 2000 'presidential election'
[coup d'etat].
