“LaRue also got Parikh to confess that the testing laboratories he worked for would not let him run certain tests: “…the point I’m trying to get to is…the labs told me not to do certain tests.  They will not allow me to do certain tests.” 

Report Brian Lupo rightly states the following: “Why would the testing labs try to restrict a certified tester from doing certain tests?  You would think a testing lab paid by the state or local government would definitely want to ensure the machines were safe and secure no matter what testing was necessary!  But that would imply that the state funds these testing labs.  They don’t.  The voting machine vendors pay them. 

You read that correctly:  the voting machine companies pay the testing companies to certify that the voting machine companies software is safe and secure.”
