Secretary of State Deborah Bowen is sticking to her guns about the failure of electronic voting. The San Francisco Chronicle reported this weekend that touch-screen voting and other electronic systems still aren't up to snuff.

"When the government finds a car is unsafe, it orders a recall," she told the Chronicle. "Here we're talking about systems used to cast and tally votes, the most basic tool of democracy."
