What were the irregularities surrounding Sen. Chuck Hagel's (R-NE) wins?

I heard there was some sort of irregularity surrounding it all.

1. He held executive positions in the companies that owned and serviced

the voting machines.

Here's one of the million articles out on the Internet about it:

Edit: amazingly, it didn't seem to get a lot of press here in Nebraska, but then again, NE is very conservative and Hagel won big.

Edit again: here's a more recent article by the same writer:

2. Why Is He a Repuke? n/t

But wait, despite that he seems to be good on many levels, anybody who takes the label "Repuke" has some bit of scoundrelism at the core. Not kidding.

3. Well....

1) He's from Nebraska, which is conservative land.
2) He's conservative. http://www.issues2000.org/Senate/Chuck_Hagel.htm

He's done a decent job of criticizing Bush, more than our Democratic Senator, Ben Nelson, in fact.

I wouldn't take the criticism about the voting machines too lightly - Hagel held executive positions in the same companies that were responsible for tracking votes in elections that he was personally running in. In addition, he left his links to those companies off of his corporate disclosure forms when he decided to run for Senate.
