Bradblog reports that Kelley Services is looking for workers to deliver electronic voting machines in California for the primary election.
So much for those vaunted claims by California's Sec. of State Bruce McPherson and his partners at Diebold, Inc. about increased security surrounding the physical access to electronic voting machines in light of newly revealed vulnerabilities to easy tampering.
A tip received by The BRAD BLOG on Monday reveals that Temp Workers are currently being sought in San Francisco for California's upcoming primary election to "assist in dropping off election voting machines and picking these machines up when voting is complete," as the says.
A classified ad seeking the workers is currently posted on the Internet at Monster.com by Kelly Services. (A screenshot of the complete ad is posted at the end of this article.) The salary offered to temp workers hired for the job -- who will have private unsupervised access to the state's voting machines before and after election day -- is $11.99/hour according to the posting.
I posted this as a comment in
bajadudes recommended diary and was encouraged to post it as a diary on its own.
I won't be able to respond as I have plans this evening. My apologies for lack of analysis and the post and dash. I thought this seemed important and I wanted to make everyone aware. If someone else wants to take on the subject and post a more substantial diary, I will be happy to delete this when I return.
