==Promoting E-voting==
"[[Diebold Election Systems]] (DES) has hired Ogilvy PR to burnish the company's image and the benefits of electronic voting in California," ''PR Week'' reported in August 2005. [http://prweek.com/news/news_story.cfm?ID=240402&site=3] The state had decertified one of DES' e-voting machines the previous year [http://prwatch.org/prwissues/2004Q2/history.html], and the company wanted to ensure that [[E-voting PR|their "story is told"]] and that voters "understand the technology," said Ogilvy's [[Michael Law]], who heads DES' California work. According to ''PR Week'', Ogilvy was researching public perceptions of DES, with an eye to developing messages "about the ease of electronic voting, particularly for voters who do not speak English, as well as for handicapped voters."
