Topic: The Risks of Electronic Voting: E-Voting and Accountable Voting Systems
Format: Speech
Length: 107 minutes
Abstract: When voters can cast multiple votes and election insiders can tamper with election results with stunning ease, it is clear that our voting systems are inadequate, said Rice University's Dan Wallach, keynote speaker at the Sept. 16 forum on the risks of electronic voting, sponsored by Rice's James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy and the Computer and Information Technology Institute. After the keynote address, a panel of experts discussed electronic voting and answered questions from the audience. The panel included Dana DeBeauvoir (County Clerk, Travis County, Texas), the Honorable Scott Hochberg (Texas State Representative for District 137), Kathy Mitchell (research coordinator for Consumers Union Southwest Regional Office), and Tony J. Sirvello III (executive director of the International Organization of Election Officials and former advisor of elections for Harris County).
