With Super Tuesday past approaching you might want to dig through that stack of newspapers and find the January 6, 2008 New York Time Magazine. The cover story by Clive Thompson has some interesting insights into those computers that will help determine the democractic process.
Its an overview of the different computer based voting machines and how sometimes (how shocking) they actually crash and mess up. Are their safeguards for the democratic process when those motherboards flake out. Not always. A good read before Super Tuesday.
