 Despite federal money, no consistency in e-voting | InfoWorld | News | 2004-10-20 | By Paul Roberts, IDG News Service
In South Carolina, many counties bought early-vintage DRE machines in the 1980s using state matching funds, but were unable to update those systems in recent years after state money dried up, said Donna Royson, deputy director of the South Carolina State Election Commission.
HAVA money is now helping South Carolina to move to a uniform system of voting machines statewide, she said.
For example, South Carolina is already in phase one of implementing its HAVA plan, which calls for the deployment of state-purchased ESandS iVotronic machines, one DRE machine for every 200 voters.
