NJ Voting Machines Can't Count

Computer security professor Ed Felton writes NJ Election Discrepancies Worse Than Previously Thought, Contradict Sequoia’s Explanation.

"I wrote previously about discrepancies in the vote totals reported by Sequoia AVC Advantage voting machines in New Jersey’s presidential primary election, and the incomplete explanation offered by Sequoia, the voting machine vendor. I published copies of the ‘summary tapes’ printed by nine voting machines in Union County that showed discrepancies; all of them were consistent with Sequoia’s explanation of what went wrong. This week we obtained six new summary tapes, from machines in Bergen and Gloucester counties. Two of these new tapes contradict Sequoia’s explanation and show more serious discrepancies that we saw before."

We can almost count. It seems the machines when wrong are only are off by 1.
