Despite months and months of protests from Diebold about just how hard it would be to add a tiny printer to their voting machines, now that the elections are through, they’ve (oh, look at that!) come up with a voting machine that includes a verifiable paper trail. Of course, what they haven’t said is how much it will cost to add a cheap printer. In the past, internal emails at Diebold showed that they planned to charge a ridiculously high fee for the printers, just because they can.
