There is only 1 publicly traded company I know of. The vast majority are privately held and small plus appear to be more innovative than the publicly traded one. Florida was only the tip of the ice burg, voting problems are very wide spread. A lot of counties and states are looking to update to ATM type, touch screen, or, at least, optical readers from punch cards and lever type machines. Contracts are awarded sometimes on a county or a state wide basis depending on the state. Some states have gone so far as to ban punch cards. Has anyone who has ever used a punch card actually checked the back of the card to see if their "chad" was still hanging? Anyway, some of the systems are pretty expensive like the touch screens . Some don't leave auditable paper trails ie. individual voter print out or ballots. So there are a lot of different directions that this market can go, plus the market may be a short lived one after machines are replaced, unless machines like the touch screens are leased instead of sold.
