I don’t expect it to actually change anything. I don’t think that the election was stolen. As far as I can tell, all of the individual voting problems—Kerry votes showing up as “Bush” and vice versa—were resolved on site and had no effect on the election. I do, however, support Black Box Voting’s effort to get the computer logs for all of the election results.
The most important feature of a democratic election is transparency. It is therefore undemocratic to use machines that can not be checked after the fact for accuracy, particularly when the voting machine software vulnerability is widely known.
This election was almost certainly not one in which that vulnerability was exploited, but some future election may hinge on how well we know what is inside the computers. I wish Black Box Voting’s effort was a less partisan one, but what they are doing has to be done.
