It's uncertain how the decision will affect the e-voting issue this year. Federal and state officials have been installing online voting machines for the general election, which has the potential to be every bit as polarizing and close as the 2000 presidential election.

While manufacturers like Diebold and Sequoia Voting Systems originally installed online voting machines in different states, it has recently run into opposition from scientists and critics.

The outcry prompted the manufacturers to band together and form the Election Technology Council (ETC) to address these issues.
