Why keep e-voting

IRELAND'S LOW-TECH Taoiseach sees glimmer and hope in much-maligned e-voting. Most people who uses a computer screen for more than three hours a day have outlined clear and definite reasons to abandon the machines. Even Fianna Fail politicians carefully explain why e-voting is a bad idea for Ireland. Sometimes you make mistakes--spending EUR 50m on failed technology is a mistake. Recognise that and move on. My bet is that the machines will be up for scrap before the 2007 school term starts.
