A computer reads numbers and does not have error detection numbers? ECC should be standard. Failure should be obvious the moment it occured. This is a major problem suggesting problems may be even more widespread.

Whose machine is that defective - manufacturer and model number? No useful details provided meaning that insufficient information is available to draw conclusions. Exactly the definition of a defective newspaper article. That report only suggests something is wrong - big time - with some Ohio voting machines and that voting officials were not concerned over something that should never occur undetected. If one voting machine counts that grossly in error and is not detected when read, then other machines certainly could be doing same - undetected.

Did the voting machine manufacturer fix his problems - or just make those problems undetectable?
