Ireland votes again on paper. This was decided the government because the e-voting-system is too expensive. Ireland already paid $67 million for the system and it costs even more to keep going with it. The country is not that financially strong at present.
Ireland's environment minister John Gormely claimed the financial crisis as prime reason, for the country has been shaken up financially by the financial crisis in a similar way to Iceland.
Ohio and Florida also had problems with the system. But the financial reason was not the only reason, it is said, that e-voting is a quite badly managed and expensive IT-project.
