Hackers at a conference last weekend found numerous vulnerabilities in election machines while the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) confirmed that current voting systems to be used in the November election have not been tested by third parties for vulnerabilities.
While many vulnerabilities were found in election machines at the conference, Georgia is set to use outdated election machines for the November presidential election, and the EAC doesn’t have a standard testing process in place to search out vulnerabilities in election equipment.
At the annual DEF CON hacker conference in Las Vegas this past weekend, hackers hacked into election equipment from various manufacturers, including voting machines, e-pollbooks, and ballot tabulators, according to Politico. They found many vulnerabilities that they will release in a report soon, and noted that some of them haven't been fixed for a long time.
DEF CON Voting Village co-founder Harri Hursti told Politico on Saturday that there were “multiple pages” worth of vulnerabilities found in election machines, which was similar to previous years and will be detailed in a full report in the coming weeks.
“If you don’t think this kind of place is running 24/7 in China, Russia, you’re kidding yourselves,” Hursti said. “We are here only for two and a half days, and we find stuff…it would be stupid to assume that the adversaries don’t have absolute access to everything.”
“There’s so much basic stuff that should be happening and is not happening, so yes I’m worried about things not being fixed, but they haven’t been fixed for a long time, and I’m also angry about it,” Hursti said.
Hursti didn’t immediately respond to requests from Just the News for comment on Wednesday.

It’s not a flaw.
It’s a feature.
Election results around November 12 by those methods....and that is very optimistic.
If I had the ability I’d hack some machines just a few minutes before the election started in California and change the parameters so that a vote for Hairass is multiplied by 0.66 and a vote for Trump is multiplied by 1.34.
Yes it is illegal but the Sh@tocrats are never going to stop cheating until someone cheats worse.
We don’t call it cheating.
We call it Election Management.

If the election machines can be hacked then why isn’t everyone responsible for the use of those machines being prosecuted?
Zuckerman says he “fortified” the 2020 election.
Somewhere there is a full written story on this that comes from somewhere other than Political. I saw someone reading from it in a video. It seemed detailed but the only showed a few parts. Why is it that the only link to every story about this is from Political? Or like this article all it does is refer to political. Where the heck is the actual information that Political was reading? I have looked. I can’t find it. I don’t want a hacked story.
