Another Voting Fiasco in Florida?

When she was Florida's Secretary of State, Katherine Harris said electronic voting machines would end her state's embarrassing problems with the electoral process. But those same machines have caused a bitter fight over who won the Congressional seat Harris left to run--unsuccessfully--for the Senate. Republican Vern Buchanan has been declared the winner in the 13th Congressional District by 369 votes, but Democrat Christine Jennings has not conceded. Some 18,000 votes appear to be missing from electronic machines with no paper trails.
