Britain J. Williams III is a Professor Emeritus of computer science at Kennesaw State University[1] in Georgia, and is consultant[2] with the school's Center For Election Systems. He has bachelor's and master's degrees in mathematics from the University of Georgia, and a PhD is in Statistics [3] from the University of Georgia in 1965.[4] He joined the faculty of (then) Kennesaw State College in 1990.[5]

He was a consultant to the Federal Election Commission during the development of their Voting System Standards in 1990 and again in 2002. He is currently a member of the National Association of State Election Directors Voting Systems Board and Chair of the Board's Technical Committee. He serves as a consultant to the states of Georgia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia, where he has certified electronic voting systems. In 2003, he wrote a defense of the Georgia electronic voting system[6] in response to criticism of Diebold Election Systems (now Premier Election Solutions) systems levied by Bev Harris, author of Black Box Voting.

Williams appeared at a United States Election Assistance Commission (EAC) Public Hearing on the Use, Security and Reliability of Electronic Voting Systems in Washington, DC on 5 May 2004. Other technology panelists included Dr. Avi Rubin, Johns Hopkins University, Information Security Institute; Stephen Berger, IEEE; and Dr. Ted Selker, MIT.

Williams is a recognized expert on electronic voting systems; he is a consultant to DES, the FEC, and four states. Williams reportedly has held a key position at the IEEE.[7]
