as to the human error, a friend of mine works for a company that does the vote tabulation for an upstate NY county and on election night the initial returns are called into their phone bank for "rough" tabulation (the results on election night are not inal...that happens a month or so later) and he says that in an evening they have probably 15-20 mistakes in the keying process that need to be corrected (they use this cool "double" system - 2 people on every call, each keying the same information and the system flags discrepencies)
