This is from the DFNYC [1] newsletter:
Good news on the verified voting issue! Last week, Bo Lipari of New Yorkers for Verified Voting [2] sent out this email:
An important milestone has been achieved by New York advocates of paper ballot based voting systems. On January 5, ES&S and Automark introduced an optical scanner and ballot marker compatible with New York and Connecticut's full face ballot requirement.
Up until now, no precinct based scanner or ballot marker supported NY's full face ballot, which displays all races and candidates on a single page in a grid format.
The growing calls for adoption of paper ballot/optical scanner from citizens all over NY has convinced at least one vendor that Scanners and Ballot Markers compatible with New York's ballot requirements must be made available.
We've achieved a crucial goal. Now there is a HAVA compliant paper ballot based system available to NY. Certification and adoption still lie ahead.
We still have a hell of a lot of work to do, but look how far we've come!
-Bo Lipari
And here is a reminder (also from DFNYC [3]):
Please call your county’s Democratic and Republican County Chairs to tell them that we want to use the PB/OS system - trustworthy paper ballots with the technologically mature optical scanners allowed by the State Legislature; and not the unproven, untrustworthy, unreliable and expensive DRE "electronic touch screen" machines that are opposed by most voters but being pushed by corporate lobbyists to maximize their profits at the public’s expense.
If you are calling the Democratic Chair in Manhattan or Staten Island, please thank them for supporting paper ballots and optical scanners.

And once again, let me once again correct something on News Copy New York [4] where they falsely claim that DFNYC wants to keep the old fashioned lever machines. No, they want PB/OS. I wish they would correct their website.
