    “It is worrying indeed that a company with connections to the Hugo Chavez regime has been selected to run elections in a county of Chicago.” Shouldn’t you have already been worried considering all the discussion, at least over the internet, concerning the voting machine fraud used in the US presidential elections of 2004? Also, considering what is now common knowledge that the US attempted manipulate the Venezuelan elections and the overthrow of Chavez, it seems that a little diversity, thus a little competition, in voting software production might be a good thing. No?
