Bush Backer Competing For State Contract On Voting Machines

[Andy_Stephenson]

A wealthy businessman who's helping the Ohio Republican Party try to win the state in 2004 for President Bush also leads a company competing for a coveted state contract to sell voting machines.

Walden O'Dell is chief executive of Diebold Incorporated in North Canton.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported yesterday that O'Dell told Republicans in an August 14th fund-raising letter that he is committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to Bush. The letter promoted a fund-raiser at his suburban Columbus mansion.

2. Yup. Funny how things that came out on DU months ago are now hitting

And these people are arrogant beyond belief: O'Dell SENDS A LETTER saying he wants to do anything he can to make sure the Republicans win the next election?

(for anyone who has not been following this, O'Dell is CEO of Diebold Election Systems.)
