MIT, CALTECH TO DEVELOP VOTING TECHNOLOGY

A team of political scientists, engineers, and design experts from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the California Institute of Technology will undertake a study of existing voting technology and create a plan to improve it. Caltech president David Baltimore said it is "embarrassing to America when technology fails and it puts democracy to such a test as we have seen in the last month," and his counterpart MIT president Charles Vest promised that, "to a large extent, the problem that the country has ... a technological solution."
