CHA Hearings March 2007
I'm not sure where to find or point you to more information, but the Subcommittee on Elections of the House Administration Committee has a number of very interesting upcoming hearings. These don't appear to be listed on the Committee's website (http://cha.house.gov/).
This Thursday (3/15) there are two hearings; one on disabled access and paper records in voting systems and the other on source code disclosure and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software in voting systems (I may very well be wrong about the scope of the hearings).
Witnesses for the disabled access panel include:
- Diane Golden - Consortium of Citizens with Disabilities
- Kelly Pierce - Disability Access Voter, Working Group Cook County
- Eric Clark - Mississippi Secretary of State
- Ted Selker - Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Witnesses for the source code disclosure panel include:
- David Wagner - UC Berkeley, ACCURATE
- Matt Zimmerman - Electronic Frontier Foundation
- Brian Behlendorf - Collab.net, Apache Software Foundation
Then, next Tuesday (3/20) there will be a hearing on, I believe, auditing elections. I know Larry Norden of the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law will be testifying and I believe Candice Hoke from the CSU Law School Center for Election Integrity will also testify.
If anyone else has information about these hearings (times, locations, will they be webcast?), I'd love to know more.
