AP is reporting that Diebold touchscreen voting machines similar to those used in Maryland were found abandoned recently on a street and in a bar in Baltimore.

Just you wait, electronic voting is slowly creeping up in our daily lives under the guise of technological advancement...
NDSCorp, Engineering firm `owned` by Rupert Murdoch's NEWSCORP is currently working on interactive TV software that soon will allow you to shop, gamble and yes, oh yes, vote from the comfiness of your couch.
Good news: you won't have to leave home. Bad news: the `fair and balanced` counting of your vote.
