- LinuxBender 5y agoUnderstood. I've actually heard that before, though it does not change my personal belief that anything short of what I described is not a voting system. It has always been my opinion that every voting system in human history has by design been a facade. But that is an unpopular opinion. Buying millions of votes is risky at best. Hacking millions of votes is trivial if the system is purpose built to facilitate this. Every few years an engineer testifies before congress they were required to make the system weak and then the public quickly forgets because the higher priority is for the public to have confidence in the system. I do not know how to break the public out of this loop. Maybe this is how it is supposed to work.
