wow, I feel sorry for Americans... - Useless Forums
No offence, but your polling system is ridiculous.
I'm watching this show on discovery channel about how your electronic voting works.
Everything is saved on a cartridge/disk, then it is opened with a laptop where it calls the central tabulator and sends this information.
ANYBODY with minor hacking skills can phone this number and write a simple VB script to change/add/remove votes from the system.
Their security measure is as follows "nobody can break into the system because they don't have the phone number".
However, the guy on the show was able to obtain this phonenumber with the freedom of information act.
This is rediculous.
Although it's highly illegal, they don't even have a paper trail eveywhere, and no way to check if it's been hacked.
The population of india is something 4-5x that of the USA.
And they can handle all their voting electronicly with no problems and do it quickly and efficiently.
It's all the same equipment and they properly test it.
Sorry, but I find it rather ridiculous that the most 'powerful' nation in the world has such an insecure voting process.

It's scary.
Canada probably isn't much better, but it just blows my mind how many loop holes the system has.
And especially when this is such a big election.
It's not just Americans who have interest in this election.
There are many people in countries that the US can't touch.
People could very easily hack the system from these countries without fear of being caught.
Not only that, but what about the terrorists?
It's silly when they have better firewalls/security on the inventory system at mcdonalds than they do on the polling systems.
