Sequoia to publish source code for voting machines

cecille writes: Voting machine maker Sequoia announced on Tuesday that they plan to release the source code for their new optical-scan voting machine. The source code will be released in November for public review. The company claims the announcement is unrelated to the recent release of the source code for a prototype voting machine by the Open Source Digital Voting Foundation (http://osdv.org). According to a VP quoted in the press release, "Security through obfuscation and secrecy is not security."
