| Video the Vote - Voting Machine Failures - 487 sec In the aftermath of the 2000 election, the media focused a great deal of attention on punch-card voting and "hanging chads," and in 2002 the Help America Vote Act paved the way for the widespread adoption of e-voting machines. But however promising these machines may have appeared to be, they can be unreliable, produce incorrect vote tallying, and pose major security risks. Video the Vote monitors election integrity and captured footage of these machine problems in 2006.

| SARASOTA RECOUNT: PART 2-"Machines always count better than humans..." - 518 sec The DOUBLE RECOUNT MADNESS CONTINUES with Golden insights into Sarasota S.O.E KATHY DENT'S curious management style and various expressions of disgust!
Canvassing Board pulls out a calculator to tally precinct recount totals and can't manage the calculator. Dent uses her own "human error" to profess to all who witness "Machines always count better than humans..." and then in the VERY same breath, cites an early voting precint with a whopping undervote of 1,115!
Absentee recount scanner "flips" one vote from Christine Jennings (D) to Vern Buchanan (R) while camera rolls/ Dent attempts to reconcile this and doesn't/ can't. Kathy Dent's husband runs around with full access behind the lines, fetching Dent her Diet Cokes.
Susan Pynchon, Director of the Florida Fair Elections Coalition-who misses nothing-responds to reporter's questions about the State's recount procedure.
Kathy Dent, in another one of her awkward press conferences, announces FINAL results of RECOUNT to the PRESS and offers no explanation for the undervote to the media, who don't even ask for one.
Hayden Dempsey, Buchanan's shifty lawyer, makes being wrong about everything look so easy. "Touch Screen Voting" promo sign that hangs in the Sarasota Board of Elections Terrace office is in both english and spanish.
Yes. This one is CHOCKED full of DENT-y goodness... Auteur : VideoTheVote2006 Tags:videothevote2006  |
| SARASOTA REVOTE RALLY, 2006/ "They Lost My Vote" - 257 sec Over 700 people gather in Sarasota's Bayfront Park to call for a Revote in the hotly contested District 13 Congressional Race between Vern Buchanan and Christine Jennings.
18,412 votes disappeared in Sarasota County, giving Republican candidate Vern Buchanan the victory with a 369 vote margin. State officials, who implemented the six-million dollar software, insist "there is no evidence" that ES&S's iVontronic machines malfunctioned on Election Day. And yet, hundreds of voters, both Republican and Democrat, have reported numerous problems casting their votes.
The event was sponsored by Florida Fair Elections Coalition, Voter Action, People For the American Way, Sarasota Alliance for Fair Elections, and Common Cause.
Now more than ever, these organizations need and deserve our support as we brace for a double lawsuit in Tallahassee to urge a REVOTE for the 13th District Congressional Race. It is our aim to circulate this video as much as possible to help keep this in the independent media spotlight... Auteur : VideoTheVote2006 Tags:videothevote2006  |
