...replacement of lever and punch card voting systems across the country. To comply with HAVA, a state may either continue to use punch card systems by “(i) establishing a voter education program specific to that voting system that notifies each voter of the effect of casting multiple votes for an office; and (ii) providing the voter with instructions on how to correct the ballot before it is cast and counted” (sec. 301), or the state may simply purchase optical scanning or DRE voting machines...
Meanwhile, in Florida, 15 counties are hoping that their new voting machines don’t melt down in the Florida heat, and that the votes they cast will be the ones that are counted. A simpler way of doing this, of course, would have been to buy optical-scanning machines - which comply with HAVA standards, reduce the number of machines required, and already produce the contemporaneous, human-readable physical ballot necessary for true voting security. For those who prefer things truly paper-free: require open source code in any voting machine, and print out a final receipt...

...whole affair, then, conjures the close-quarters feel of the Ex while providing twice the seating capacity and retaining the Loeb’s atrocious acoustics. This is a mixed bag, and though I heartily endorse avoiding the temptation the Loeb presents to produce mammoth, overly-ambitious and preposterous casts-of-scores student theater mega-disasters (think: Chess), there is perhaps some as-yet-undiscovered middle ground that the HRDC can reach. Regardless, Gilead is a professional, entertaining, and overall excellent production that is a credit to its staff, cast, and the potential of the mainstage...
...Nathan Lane, who originated the role of Max on Broadway, and will replace Dreyfuss for three months. (The good news: based on the first preview, Lane's fabulously manic, archly knowing interpretation is intact.) After his stint, Lane will leave to shoot the movie version of The Producers. The cast has already felt the difference. Says leading lady Leigh Zimmerman, "We've all been ready to move up a gear for a couple of weeks but couldn't. Now with the fire Nathan brings to the role, at last we can." So far, no replacement candidates have materialized to play...
