I am a software developer and freelance writer living in Humboldt County, California. I take on projects I like, for people I like.

My email is at gmail.com, and the first part of my email address is mjtrac.

Are you looking for my commentary on the Humboldt County Election Transparency Project ? Or my short essay on machine vs. hand counting? What about my essay on machine counting without the need to provide ballot templates for each new election? ? All are licensed under the Creative Commons license below.

Are you looking for the latest development snapshot of Ballot Browser? You'd probably rather go to tevs.googlecode.com, which is the code repository for Ballot Browser's successor.

Are you looking for TEVSystems (Trachtenberg Election Verification Systems)?

Why not take a look at my November 2000 article about Florida's 2000 ballot, while you're here?
