Hamilton County Fights Electronic Voting Machines

POSTED: 7:37 PM EST January 10, 2004
UPDATED: 7:38 PM EST January 10, 2004
COLUMBUS, Ohio The Hamilton County Board of Elections is defying the statewide order to pick out new electronic machines to replace punch-card voting systems, NewsChannel 4 reported.

Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell ordered counties to choose one of four electronic systems from two vendors.

Federal law requires the change to avoid a repeat of the 2000 presidential election fiasco in Florida.

Sixty-nine of Ohio's 88 counties still use punch cards. Montgomery and Cuyahoga counties also are fighting the deadline.
