I am really glad they reference the mdb files, also known as Ballot Definition Files.

Whereas the Accuvote machines may have been made while Diebold owned that business, they sold it years ago to Premier. And by referencing the fact that LHS is a vendor that prepares the mdb's, it would suggest we can leave open the possibility that "Diebold", er, Premier, isn't messing with the elections...but LHS or bad actor election officials might be.
