And you are going to believe the code they show you is the code compiled and installed on the machines?

Or if someone does a last minute update?

“And you are going to believe the code they show you is the code compiled and installed on the machines? Or if someone does a last minute update?”

How are we doing it now? I’d imagine this is a step toward accountability, but I could be wrong.

For someone opinionated as myself I should be knowledgable on this topic and have ideas. But I am a bit stumped.

I want to believe there is a safe and secure way to do this electronically where everything is verifiably done by the books, but I can’t say how.

Perhaps indelible ink and day-of voting works best. Even then, how are we sure our vote counted the way we meant it to be?

Somewhere it seems we lost that underlying prerequisite for representative government: people who believe in the idea enough not to cheat.
