Researchers Hack Voting Machine for $26

http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/09/30/researchers-hack-voting-m...

Campaigning for the 2012 presidential race has already begun, but what the candidates don't know is that come election day, hackers could be the ones whose votes have the biggest impact.

Researchers from the Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois have developed a hack that, for about $26 and an 8th-grade science education, can remotely manipulate the electronic voting machines used by millions of voters all across the U.S.

The researchers, Salon reported, performed their proof-of-concept hack on a Diebold Accuvote TS electronic voting machine, a type of touchscreen Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) voting system that is widely used for government elections. MORE>>>

 

LOL unbelievable that America is so stupid as to allow electronic voting machines like this. If we're going to go electronic it can be done with open source code, encryption and peer to peer fact checking methods. If you can bank online you can vote online as Celente says.
