2. I did cut an Ohio shaped hole in it...
to convey the same general meaning. Didn't have room for all the questionable states.

In the meantime, here's one I whipped up for ya...

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, December 2, 2003 – Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell today released reports on security assessments conducted by two independent testing firms of electronic voting systems proposed for use in Ohio. Diebold Election Systems found the system analysis conducted by Compuware and InfoSentry for the state of Ohio to be very comprehensive. Modifications to the Diebold touch screen software have already been completed, answering the few questioned areas identified in the analysis. These modifications have already been implemented within touch screen units in Maryland, and have operated exceptionally well. These software enhancements will be implemented in all touch screen units deployed throughout Ohio.
