Judge upholds touch screens

By Tom Stuckey
ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANNAPOLIS — Anne Arundel County Circuit Judge Joseph P. Manck yesterday rejected a challenge to Maryland's electronic voting system, ruling that the state has "taken all reasonable steps to protect the integrity of the voting process in Maryland."
Granting the request of TrueVoteMD that voters be allowed to use paper ballots in November if they do not trust touch-screen machines "would cause much confusion and is clearly against the public interest," Judge Manck said.

1. Time to appeal to a higher court, pronto!

What hogwash! Sounds like that judge refused to see the Howard Dean demo on CNBC.
