The Justice Department said Monday it will require the biggest voting machine company in the country to sell off key assets following a merger that left the firm in control of more than 70 percent of U.S. voting equipment systems.
The largest voting machine company in the country bought its biggest competitor six months ago without advance fanfare. Now the Justice Department is investigating whether to unwind the merger that put a privately held Nebraska company in control of the voting machines in nearly 70 percent of the nation's precincts.
