Welcome to FR. Some of us can use the extra help. Warning: Making posts like that could trigger quite a few and is the equivalent of telling toddlers that the Easter Bunny is not real.

Haha, thanks. There's no doubt China, Russia, or even Britain would love the power to alter US votes, and would do so if given the chance. Also no doubt is that hacking espionage is rampant.
That's why it would be insane to connect voting machines to the Internet. If anyone proved this occurred with any regularity, it would be a huge security concern, and would never pass technical muster in the real world. There's no functional need for a voting machine to be connected to the Internet. Let's remember there were voting machines before all devices were Internet-enabled.
