Think I found a minor pattern in California... thoughts?

Hi all,

Notice there isn't a single Diebold Accuvote Touchscreen/DRE in this batch? And of the two touchscreens that made it into this list (Sequoia AVC Edge) they are in counties that I marked with a star? Notice the other two stars are on counties with Diebold equipment? Wonder where George is going with this?

Alpine - Datavote (Punchcard)
Butte - Mark-A-Vote (Optiscan)
Contra Costa - Mark-A-Vote (Optiscan)
Glenn - Datavote (Punchcard)
Humbolt - AccuVote-OS (Optiscan)
Inyo - Datavote (Punchcard)
Marin - AccuVote-OS (Optiscan)
Mendocino - Accuvote-OS (Optiscan)
Modoc* - Accuvote-OS (Optiscan)
Mono - Optech Eagle (Optiscan)
Napa* - AVC Edge (Touchscreen/DRE)
Nevada - Model 100/550/650 (Optiscan)
Plumas* - Accuvote-OS (Optiscan)
San Francisco - Optech Eagle (Optiscan)
San Mateo - Optech Eagle (Optiscan)
Santa Barbara - Accuvote-OS (Optiscan)
Santa Clara* - AVC Edge (Touchscreen/DRE)
Santa Cruz - Mark-A-Vote (Optiscan)
Siskiyou - Accuvote-OS (Optiscan)
Sonoma - Mark-A-Vote (Optiscan)

This is a list of CA counties that did not show odd gains for Bush. The stars showed gains that might be easily explained away but were still questionable. This is 20 of the 58 counties. There were NINE diebold Accuvote Touchscreen DREs and NONE of them were used in my "safe" list of counties.

Whatcha all think? Pattern?? ;)

Warmly,

George

(p.s. edited because original post was asking for machine info for each of the counties, but that was answered quickly. Thanks!)
