Diebold Variations --because America's democracy is not open source

diebold_30a.jpg

Thanks to dana boyd, the high priestess of social networking, I found this wonderful site with some frighteningly real parody ads of Deibold, one of the two companies in the country that manufacture electronic voting machines --and which may have won the Republicans 8 years of elections.

Rand Creaga writes:

I came into possession of the image of Stalin casting a vote, and wondered what the ghastly old fellow might have made of the new touchscreen voting technology. A magazine ad suggested itself, and then another, and another... They're arranged here in the order conceived; after two days inspiration

This site would make Brad Friedman, the blogosphere's anti-Diebold crusader, a very happy man.

Enjoy.
