>them from happening again in the next election,"
>said Rick Lass.
>
>New Mexico resident Bob Walsh, a statistical
>expert with experience in auditing calculations,
>will be one of the speakers at the press
>conference.

>election included malfunctioning voting machines
>and an unusually high number of under-votes
>(ballots cast with no votes for president) and
>"phantom" votes (more votes for president
>recorded than actual voters).
