Gregory Miller interviewed at OSCON 2010
summary
U.S. voting systems are proprietary and concentrated: 88% of voting systems controlled by two vendors and one vendor holds over 75% market share, creating little incentive to innovate. The TrustTheVote project (started 2006) builds an open, componentized framework driven by over 200 elections stakeholders, aiming for componentized certification to shorten cycle times and to enable systems integrators to deploy reference stacks, lowering the $6–8M certification barrier. District of Columbia implements parts now; online voting remains limited to special cases like overseas military.
