8. OH: Brunner Defends Touch Screen Ban


From: John Gideon

Brunner defends touch-screen ban
Hearing on decision to scrap voting machines statewide set for next week
BY JON CRAIG | JCRAIG@ENQUIRER.COM

COLUMBUS - Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner will host a public hearing next Tuesday for citizens and scientists to react to her recommendation to scrap touch-screen voting machines in Ohio before the Nov. 4 election.

During a Statehouse news conference Monday, the Democrat held fast to her decision that 57 counties in Ohio - including Adams, Butler and Highland - should replace electronic touch-screen voting machines, which a study found susceptible to hacking and technical failures.

"I don't believe that we can continue to use (touch-screen voting machines) into the November election," she said.
