While Blackwell's lack of disclosure (or due diligence) in selecting a voting machine evaluator may have exposed the state of Ohio to potential legal liability from vendors, his failure to disclose the contents of the August 18, 2004 CompuWare report to election officials may cause even greater legal issues.
