For 14 years, this ‘event’ sat there, known as a fact, and no one did anything. I don’t see events triggering any change. Other than equating Biden to Chavez’s level, the path continues on.

If i were a TX of FL county using this system, from this video, it would make me very very very nervous.

Voting machines put U.S. democracy at risk

EXCERPTS:

There are four main manufacturers of electronic voting systems, none of which has been demonstrated to be more secure than the others. Diebold is the most well-known, but a new Princeton University study concerning Diebold's AccuVote-TS machine found that hackers can easily tamper with electronic voting machines by installing a virus to disable machines and change the vote totals.

Princeton researchers found that "malicious software" running on a single voting machine can steal votes with little, if any, risk of detection, and that anyone with access can install the software. The study also suggests these machines are susceptible to voting-machine viruses. Diebold says the unit used in the test was two generations old and to its knowledge is not used anywhere in the country.

A 2005 Government Accountability Office report on electronic voting confirmed the worst fears of watchdog groups and election officials. That report said, "There is evidence that some of these concerns have been realized and have caused problems with recent elections, resulting in the loss and miscount of votes."

(Re the OP by TigerClaws - the CNN source URL address no longer provides the video. So, I went looking and found a roughly similar article from 2006, by Lou Dobbs.)
