Intent to Defraud: The private company that helped build the now discarded "potential" felons list in Florida claims that state election officials knew about the design flaws which would exclude Hispanics since 1998. The company discussed the difficulties involving Hispanic felons with the Secretary of State's office in late 1997 or early 1998. Story Here. The state also knew about flaws in the touch screen voting machines before they were purchased. Election officials bought them despite knowledge that the machines recorded cases in which no vote was cast at a higher rate than some other machines. Story Here. Because of this pattern and practice by Secretary of State Glenda Hood (R-FL), some have calls for her removal. Story Here.
