1. I'm surprised Virginia is not among them.
There are many precincts that use electronic voting machines.

4. Could be numerous states with problems, but 10 bear particular watching

From the report..."While there could be numerous places with problems, ten states in particular bear watching for changes to procedure, recent legal challenges to states policies, close races and new equipment, and in some cases, all three."

5. Report says Georgia "just missed the list," but has voter ID law concerns.
Is there a paper trail for the DRE machines in Georgia or any way to audit the results from the electronic voting machines. We have no way to audit DRE's in Florida and the Republican legislature passed a law saying because it was impossible, it was not required! Isn't Georgia one of the few states that uses DRE voting exslusively--except for absentee ballots, I would presume.
