Per the story published today on Wired about last year's controversial Florida election in Sarasota County, I'm posting PDFs of some of the documents describing problems with voting machines that day. The documents were filled out by pollworkers and technicians and discuss voters having two types of difficulty: slow screen responses that required voters to press the screen hard or repeatedly to get it to register their vote, and machines that seemed to register a voter's selection on the ballot page but failed to show the vote on the review page.

A sampling of pollworker reports by precinct: 18, 19, 25, 25 again, 98, and 124.

Sampling of technician reports by precinct: 1, 3, 5, 18, 19, 32, and 46.
