In election news, the Green Party has announced that it has raised $150,000 over the past week, enough to file the required fee for a statewide recount of the vote in Ohio. The Green Party and its 2004 nominee David Cobb have said the recount is needed because of widespread reports of voting problems in Ohio including reports of mis-marked and discarded ballots, problems with electronic voting machines and the targeted disenfranchisement of African American voters. Meanwhile in electronic voting news, the Indiana TV station WTVW is reporting the a recently uncovered electronic voting glitch has altered the results of the vote for the County Commissioners race in Indiana’s Franklin County. The glitch caused some machines to record votes for Democratic candidates for Libertarians. When the votes were re-counted after the glitch was uncovered, the Democratic candidate had won enough new votes to beat the Republican candidate who had been named the winner.
