The US Office of Management and Budget has reported that many government departments have improved their online presence - but it appears to have failed by its own criteria.
US federal agencies are beginning to make progress on e-government, says an official management report.
A federal judge last week upheld a California directive that decertified touch-screen voting machines and withheld future certification until vendors of those systems can meet specific security requirements.
When it comes to e-government, Michigan is tops in the nation.
That's according to a new survey by the Center for Digital Government that compared how state governments across the country use technology to better serve their citizens.
In the wake of the painful experiences of 2000, the choice of the mechanism used to record and tally votes in this year's presidential election may be almost as controversial as the battle between the candidates. Unfortunately, a hefty portion of state and local jurisdictions have prematurely adopted electronic voting systems.
A federal judge this week upheld the California secretary of state’s decision to decertify current touch-screen voting machines for use in the November general election.
The decision means that it is unlikely that the direct-recording electronic machines, used by an estimated 43 percent of voters in the state’s March elections, will be used in this fall’s presidential election.
