Runner | Subject: RE: Yikes and Wow: Worm attacked voter database in Florida Yet another reason why e-voting is such a struggle. Considering the complete lack of due diligence in terms of security these companies seem to follow, I would be hardly enthusiastic about those things. The fact that they got smacked with something that was that old is rather disturbing. |

Giver 18427 | Subject: RE: Yikes and Wow: Worm attacked voter database in Florida Didn't Stalin say something like "those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything."? So maybe those that monkey with the voting really deiced everything. |

Better than etherware or PacMan vulnerable vote casting. |

Runner | Subject: RE: Yikes and Wow: Worm attacked voter database in Florida I know some places are demanding an auditable paper trail for voting machines. However, some of the manufacturers have been slow to adopt that standard. Plus, that can create other issues, as well. Not necessarily arguing for or against one side, just pointing out random facts related to the issue. |

Expert 830 Chesapeake, VA | Subject: RE: Yikes and Wow: Worm attacked voter database in Florida You know I don't mind that it is electronic as far as voting is concerned. But, to not have a backup method on site in the event of such and issue is ludicrous. That is terrible that some were not able to vote. |

Master 1821 | Subject: RE: Yikes and Wow: Worm attacked voter database in Florida here's a great video made by some IT researchers at princeton showing just how easily a diebold machine can be hacked to change the vote. http://itpolicy.princeton.edu/voting/ oregon has a vote-by-mail system. they have anti-fraud procedures in place, there is a papertrail, no security problems like with diebold machines, turnout rates are high, it costs less, and there are no long lines to stand in on election day. |
