Murder Spies and Voting Lies — The Clint Curtis Story

Journalist Brad Friedman (Bradblog.com) pokes at the seamy side of American democracy in this beautifully filmed documentary. Whistle-blower Clint Curtis, a computer programmer by trade, sticks to his claims that he was asked to make vote-rigging software for electronic voting machines by former US Congressman and loyal Bushite,Tom Feeney (R-Fl). Tension rises when the vote-rigging scandal dips into a murder mystery. While Clint Curtis testified to a Congressional Judiciary committee caucus in December 2004, and passed a lie detector test shortly thereafter, mainstream media has paid scant attention to his story. Independent filmaking is filling that gap. Memorable personalities emerge in the documentary: attorney Bob Fitrakis who sued for a recount in Ohio, social critic Gore Vidal, former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, and researcher Richard Hayes Phillips. Security expert Harri Hursti explains the shocking internal shortcomings of problem voting machines. Not to be missed.
