JENNY COHN ARTICLE, con't.

Key info on development of GEMS is in the section below, #17 - 34; key points are listed below.


Diebold Election Systems/Premier (previously called “Global Election Systems”)

19. Diebold entered the voting machine business with its 2002 acquisition of Global Election Systems, a company whose Senior VP (programmer jeffrey dean) was a CONVICTED FELON who had served time for sophisticated crimes involving "COMPUTER TAMPERING".

20. Global brought on dean shortly before the 2000 election. A few months later, it hired a convicted drug trafficker - who dean met in prison - to oversee punch card printing.

24. Diebold told the AP that dean left the company in 2002.

25. But [Beverly] Harris obtained dean's court file, which included internal Diebold memos showing that dean remained as a Diebold consultant.

26. According to Wired, dean "wrote & maintained...code used to count hundreds of thousands of votes."

27. dean also programmed the GEMS central tabulator system, which counted one third of the votes in 37 states in 2004…….

30. Because elected officials and news organizations never followed up on dean's whereabouts, we can only speculate as to when (if at all) dean's relationship with the company ended.

SO: the person responsible for GEMS was
Jeffrey Dean-
a CONVICTED FELON whose ongoing role remains a mystery.

There is ONE clue that he remained with Diebold a long time:

31. In 2010, Dominion bought Diebold’s intellectual property rights and warehoused equipment.

But ES&S kept some — perhaps even most — of Diebold’s servicing and maintenance contracts, which is where control of elections would mostly come from.

Note the name of the Dominion spokesperson in this article.
[SEAN DEAN- see article]
I do not know if there is a relationship.
