From the news release:

> The report, published Monday, confirmed that Global’s AccuVote precinct-based optical scan system ranked highest in the percentage of properly cast and counted ballots in the November 7, 2000 Presidential election. Global’s AccuVote system recorded the lowest number of blank and spoiled ballots at 0.55 percent of the five voting system technologies certified for use in Florida.

Does anyone have an online source for the complete task force report? I am curious how they counted "Blank/Spoiled" ballots. Is this the whole ballot, or just the Presidential race? Is this before or after duping? I have always wanted "real-world" numbers for this stuff. I am not sure whether these are it or not.
As an aside while I'm here, anyone have an online (or otherwise) source for:

> “Global’s philosophy is to design voting system products that are accurate, reliable and voter friendly,” said Talbot Iredale ... “The findings of the Florida Task Force reinforce the benefits of Global’s design concepts and our commitment to product development.”

I've known Tab for seven years, and have never heard him say anything like this. Is he feeling okay?
