Diebold voting systems are getting some much deserved scrutiny. However, this looks more and more like a case of incompetent software development and poor corporate development practices, and less and less like some grand conspiracy. The big problem? Painting it as a conspiracy is likely to cause the very real problems to be ignored, as the conspiracy theorists will be painted as nuts.
Never attribute to conspiracy what can far more easily be attributed to stupidity or laziness
