Northwestern: County Board Correct to Gather More Info on Voting Machines

I both agree and disagree with individual points made in the article, however, the opening is 100% correct:

Given the questions about Diebold touch-screen voting machines, the Winnebago County Board of Supervisors was right Tuesday to reject accepting a grant for the machines and schedule further hearings on the matter.

The objective of the board's Judiciary Committee over the coming weeks should be to replace rumor and innuendo with information and facts that the board can use to ultimately decide to accept or reject state funding for the machines.
