That's a long stretch.  You are equating the Diebold machines to the
Borg.  Hardly.  Each Diebold machine is independent and just dumps out a
simple set of metrics.  They are NOT networked together and, as I
understand it, based on my experience yesterday, only record your vote
on a memory-card to be read elsewhere.  By concept it is no different
then a paper card reader, other than hanging-chads are not allowed in
binary. ;)
