Columbus - Secretary of State Ken Blackwell has replaced a firm slated to help conduct the security review of Ohio's newly certified voting machines - after his office discovered that the firm had a financial interest in one of the machine makers.

The decision followed his office's discovery that an arm of Science Applications International Corp. had promised to make a $5 million investment that would benefit Hart Intercivic.

This week is starting to look like a goody for BBV...

There is also a nice report on an bit of direct community action here..

Is it just me or is there a change of tone to all this... I really think Diebold may now be on the run. And if Ohio sacks SAIC for having a conflict of interest then what does that say about Maryland, not to mention GA which was planning on basing its whitewash on the MD report...

I can hear those walls a tumbling down :)
