"The matter of voting machine 'sleepovers' --- the practice of sending
pre-programmed, election-ready voting systems home with pollworkers, often days
and weeks prior to elections, for deliver to polls on Election Day --- first
became a controversy last year after The BRAD BLOG exposed the issue as it
occurred during San Diego's special election to replace disgraced Republican
U.S. House Rep. Randy 'Duke' Cunningham. "
Why isn't this one of those ideas that we should just understand is wrong. Even if the person who is watching the machine is honest, his life is in danger if someone wants to either force him to tamper with it, or break into the house to tamper with it themselves. Just a bad idea.
