If you've been following the Diebold voting machine scandal, you know how they've released production code so bad that it allows people to vote multiple times. Diebold has been trying to squash people who have been posting leaked internal memos exposing their inept software by serving them with DMCA letters. To the rescue comes Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-Ohio), who has posted the memos on the House of Representatives website . Let's see Diebold try to tear them down now...

Kudos to Congressman Kucinich for blowing the covers off of Diebold's shady schemes, and for going the extra step of working for measures that will prevent this type of behaviour in the future.

Congressman Kucinich is working to address these problems by providing some of Diebold’s internal memos on this site to increase public access, drafting legislation to address software security problems, and working to investigate Diebold’s legal abuses.

New Legislation
Congressman Kucinich is working with his Congressional colleagues to draft legislation that would create an open-source design process for voting machine software. This process would ensure public oversight and transparency, as well as establish the most secure voting software for citizens to cast their votes.

Its no surprise that the corrupt Diebold Corporation is a Republican controlled company, and that Republicans are making no noise about this issue, but rather trying to cover for Diebold.
