2. Oh, darn!

- I'm sure the DOJ would've investigated this if they'd have only known about it. Whoops.

3. but that cant be d.w.s. sayz that's stuff for conspiracy theorists

4. 1 simple question

Has anyone ever compared the paper trail to the actual reported numbers? EVER?

One would think that would be the first thing you would do when testing a program. DUH...

I would also think that this would be done prior to ANY election. A small sampling of 2K should do it.

OK, so we just had an election. Hire someone to compare the numbers. Let's see how accurate they are.

Inquiring minds want to know.

13. We don't have paper trails.

Many, maybe most of our current voting machines do not have paper trails. In my opinion, this is outrageous!

[tartan2]

14. OMG, are you suggesting that money be spent to determine if our

elections are rigged! That would mean we have to spend money on our government! Which is something the "right" hates!

[Enthusiast]

15. And spending required revenue (at some point).

[Hoppy]

20. We are already spending $$$ to make sure that poor people, Spanish speaking and Black speaking

Americans don't vote. What the hell more to you want?

26. I think they tried that in 2000 and we see how that turned out. n/t

5. 2000 ELECTION! This was in reference to

Ohio voting machine software. That's not to say the same or similar B.S. is not still going on, but it's disingenuous to imply that this is a current situation or testimony. Your 'published April 18, 2011' is misleading, at best. I think it's hilarious that this You Tube was plastered all over the interwebs in November 2012, claiming the machines were rigged to favor President Obama. I bookmarked this exact clip way back when, for historical reference. Sorry, I don't have the exact date, but it's at least a decade old.

6. Nothing has changed in OHio.

Our own SOS deemed our machines to be easily hackable and was unable to rectify the problem before vacating her office mid term. Go figure.

We need Jimmy Carter and paper ballots. Why can't we protect our own elections?

[Enthusiast]

16. Yes. Paper ballots and UN observers.

7. If it's a felony to vote illegally

with the possible penalty of 5 years in prison, then writing code which will ignore hundred or thousands of votes should be worth several decades in prison.

23. That makes sense to me….

8. Ya but we can't talk about somebody that does good work in this field

[sulphurdunn]

10. Electronic voting machines

are designed to be rigged.

[BeanMusical]

27. And if you manage to rig slot machines in Vegas...

You'll more than likely get caught and end up in the slammer for a really long time.

11. Britain only votes with hand marked and hand counted paper ballots.

During the counting process - anyone can come and watch. To hell with the machines - we need to demand paper ballots and a supervised hand counting of all votes for each election. Period.

12. As does Canada I think. ~nt

[Enthusiast]

18. If we are interested in preserving democracy, that is.

The Righties® see democracy as an obstacle to get around.

[Turbineguy]

17. Rigging is republican for

winning.

[Enthusiast]

19. Precisely.

21. King Lincoln Bronzeville Neighborhood Association v. Blackwell

That case was dismissed in 2012.

Remember the Republican IT Consultant from the 2004 election that was subpoenaed in that case?

Nothing has changed.

Wonder why voting machines are still in use?

[midnight]

22. This becomes more obviously clear. Election computers are being feed codes and those

codes are being written to provide certain outcomes.

24. Everything is As Intended. nt
