After 2000, the media focused a great deal of attention on punch-card voting (remember "hanging chads"?) This led to the passage of the 2002 Help America Vote Act, which paved the way for the widespread adoption of e-voting machines. But however promising these machines may have seemed, they did- and still do- pose major problems, including security risks, unreliability, and even incorrect vote tallying. Video the Vote monitors election integrity, and captured footage of some of these machine problems in 2006. To learn more about e-voting machines, check out http://www.videothevote.org/stories/machinefailures.html and http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/06/magazine/06Vote-t.html?ref=politics.
