Linda Lamone, Maryland\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s top election official allowed her picture, and a statement of questionable quality, to be used in a brochure that Diebold is using to promote their electronic poll book product. While Lamone discusses how great the product is, she conveniently forgets that the system failed miserably when used in the state primary last September. She claims that she sees nothing wrong with allowing Diebold to use this promotion, after all she is a lawyer and she reviewed the brochure before it was printed. The Governor and some state legislators from both parties seem to disagree with Lamone. What are the odds that Diebold will pull back the brochures to help Lamone out of a fix? &#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div class=\"list\">\n<li>NAtional: S1487 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c What does it do?
