It used to be the case that accusations of voting machine related fraud came habitually and often from the left[0]. I wish we had open-source, publicly reviewed voting machines..
Diebold used to be the bête-noire of computer security people. Not particularly relevant but Dominion inherited Diebold with one of their acquisitions.

- smt88 6y agoThe accusations in the article you linked are fact-based and mostly related to security. They're not comparable to the lunacy people are inventing about Dominion.
- emmelaich 6y agoYeah, I wasn't taking a position wrt to Dominion. I am saying it would be good to have much more confidence in the voting system than we have. From any political persuasion.
- smt88 6y agoWe have nonpartisan security researchers, as well as election experts from both sides, who say the election was secure. No state is totally leaving it up to machines. There are paper ballots as well as "sanity checks" throughout the process. The voting machines may have vulnerabilities, but there is bipartisan consensus that it wouldn't be possible to change election results without raising an alarm. For one thing, you couldn't predict which counties/states to tamper with ahead of time.
