The touch-screen holy grail

E-VOTE PROTOTYPE HAS RIGHT STUFF

Mercury News Editorial

An electronic voting system that's cheap, secure, accurate and easy to use. One that uses off-the-shelf hardware and publicly examinable software. One that voters can trust.

A prototype of such a system -- the holy grail of election officials -- was on display last week in San Jose. It looked like the real deal.

Had the federal government underwritten the research behind it years ago, such a system might now be making its debut in voting booths. Instead, the demonstration took place in a conference room at the county government building with its creators in search of financial backers and government grants.
