Supervisors weigh canceling IBM voting contract
The board tentatively approved dropping the 6.9 million IBM contract for new voting devices from other firms at an estimated saving of 1.6 million. Final action awaits state election commission ruling on device acceptability to ensure lighter, more compact recorders. A protest emerged over rejecting the low bid, and supervisor Ernest Debs alleged an intrigue between the commission and device makers. ERA favored an 803 thousand component package from Computer Election System and Western Molded Fibre bases for over 40,000 compact devices, noting Compuvote’s bid was cheaper but lacked tooling for bases.
