I agree, they can never be secure nor hack proof as the 2020 election showed us, especially in today’s tech savvy world. There are too many potential crooks wanting to influence elections, whether they be corporations, foreign governments, domestic traitors, domestic politicians or foreign and/or domestic agencies think C_A type orgs.
I think I read somewhere the only way to secure an election is with a paper trail.As well as electronic.
The problem we have is that cheating has kept the dems in office for decades. Do we think they will go quietly into the night when we tell them its all over? I doubt it too.
