Diebold lies to election officials, claims offices which do not exist

Diebold talked its way into Utah partly by claiming it had 20 offices in the state with which to service its equipment. Typically, the election officials did no checking, leaving it for activists to expose the lies.

A few days ago this volunteer drove around to all Diebold's locations in 3 counties and discovered that of the 18 Utah offices listed in White Pages - 16 of the listed Diebold locations were phoney and the addresses belonged to either a Walmart or a Sam's Club or no building at all.

When two of the Walmart managers were asked, they said that Diebold had no office in their store, and did not even own or maintain the ATM in their store.

When a Diebold representative at Evergreen was asked several times why all its "locations" listed in the White pages pointed to Walmarts or Sam's Clubs, he claimed not to know anything about it, yet he continued to claim that Diebold had "about 20 locations in Utah" but he could not give the locations of any of these alleged office locations.
