- Needs a paper receipt
-
It really needs a paper receipt, disclosing the source is fine and a good step forward, but these are general purpose computing platforms they're using.
If I wanted to change an election, I could run *extra* software on them to change the vote, I could run *a different version of the voting software* on them to change the vote. Because I can change the software without leaving an audit trail on a general purpose computer, it makes them vulnerable to attack.
Personally, a simple paper roll printer locked inside the machine printing out the votes, with the vote just cast visible through a slot window till the person clicks 'accept'/removes their voting card. - Posted by: Nigel Johnstone Posted on: 06/08/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
