how did hanging chads damage an election?


all there is to fixing hanging chads was to have enough machines to vote on


they didn't have enough workers to empty the chads out so the holes were not easy to punch


you don't even know what your talking about huh


easily solved by more machines and more workers

The 2018 midterm elections have been racked with concerns that state voting systems could be vulnerable to attacks by highly skilled Russian intelligence agencies looking to alter poll results.

But over the weekend, participants in a hacking conference proved that those interested in shaping the history of American democracy don’t need the backing of an authoritarian government to wreak havoc.



They don’t even need to have hit puberty


An 11-year-old boy changed fake voting results by hacking into an exact replica of Florida’s state election website in just 10 minutes, according to the organizers of DEF CON 26, an annual hacker convention.


The competition pitted 39 kids, age 6 to 17, against one another to see who could hack into replica election systems of six swing states across the US. Thirty-five of the 39 kids completed the “exploit” and “tampered with vote tallies, party names, [and] candidate names” within 30 minutes, according to DEF CON.

Fortunately, Florida has paper backup ballots.

Any result that looks funny or not right, can be hand counted.

Only Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, New Jersey, and Delaware use electronic voting exclusively.

In the run up to the election, Central Florida election officials say that’s not a concern because of safeguards they have in place, including the fact that Florida has not gone all-digital in voting like other states.

I don't know anything about what those 11 year olds did.

Apparently, because there's a paper backup system in place, if the computers do get hacked, the paper ballot recount will rectify the situation.

...AND....they are not connected to the internet. They cannot be hacked.

First time I have seen anything honest from you. I applaud you.

This is why we need voter ID and paper ballots, which DEMOCRATS don't want.

BTW, a George Soros associate owns a voting machine technology company.

Smartmatic is owned by Lord Mark Malloch-Brown. He is connected to Soros through the Open Society Foundation, an organization that gives grants to civil society organizations around the world. Malloch-Brown serves on the Open Society Global Board.

It's FL, no need to hack to get an outcome the system wants.
