From the New York Times:

Electronic voting machines made by Diebold Inc. that are widely used in several states have such poor computer security and physical security that an election could be disrupted or even stolen by corrupt insiders or determined outsiders, according to a new report presented today to Maryland state legislators.

Update (31 January, 2004): The New York Times has an editorial that returns to this story, restating the necessity for a paper-based audit trail.
