Hotel keys open voting machines

The access panel door on a Diebold AccuVote-TS voting machine--the door that protects the memory card that stores the votes, and is the main barrier to the injection of a virus--<A HREF="http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/?p=1064">can be opened with a standard key</A> that is widely available on the Internet. A little research revealed that the exact same key is used widely in office furniture, electronic equipment, jukeboxes, and hotel minibars. It's a standard part, and like most standard parts it's easily purchased on the Internet. Can you say voter fraud and election tampering?
