Re: [atlarge-discuss] [Fwd: voting mechanism]

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Jeff H., and all fellow members,

  I think that many here have made note that the OLD DNSO
Voting system which Sotiris is touting yet again, is inadequate
as it was for the DNSO and shown to be so within the DNSO.
See archives of the DNSO archives on ""Voting", "Ballots"",
ect...  Archives are located here:  http://www.dnso.org/archives.html
Go back to 1999 and search forward from there.

Email voting does not scale for a large number of  members,
and is can be very insecure or does not protect the sanctity
of the voter in most instances.

  A better voting system can be found here: http://www.surevote.com/
Also see: http://www.evote.com/ and http://www.election.com/
