 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A group of voters sued the state and 18 counties Tuesday in a bid to prevent them from using Diebold Election Systems' electronic voting machines in California's general election.
The suit — filed by the advocacy group Voter Action on behalf of about a dozen voters — alleges that Diebold's touch-screen machines lack adequate security and aren't user-friendly for the disabled.
Machines made by Diebold Election Systems, based in Allen, Texas, are slated to be used in as many as 18 of California's 52 counties this November.
