2) That the code should undergo a regular challenge where vulnerabilities are exposed and penetration of the system is tested on a bi-annual frequency.
3) There be a law passed that requires the use of the open source voting system.
It is easy to go even farther. Image used to initially load the machine can be an ISO, and the SHASUM of the ISO can be published and validated by any person with a laptop with a CD Drive. Similarly, any binary used should have a public signature that can be validated. You can even have software what will automatically check binaries and shut down the machine if tampering is detected.
None of this is rocket science.I would also recommend that the operating system of the machine be an SE-enabled version of Linux.
Any device with the correct hardware specs should be able to act as a testing platform, and ALL code MUST be OPEN SOURCE.
If you want us to trust computers, they all must be completely transparent in all aspects. Any hidden components are instantly suspect.
All of these solutions are good.
But, do they address the problem of thoroughly corrupted voter rolls?
I’ve often proposed that voter rolls be zeroed out every four years after quadrennial federal elections. Every voter must appear in person at the registrar’s office with valid government Real ID proof of your identity and birth certificate or passport. The ID should show citizenship.
If you are an invalid or shut-in, the registrar can dispatch a person to your residence to re-register you.
The efforts to clean up the voter rolls are a fools errand. Anybody who has ever set out to clean up corporate databases knows how difficult this is. While you cannot simply zero-out all corporate dates, there is absolutely no reason you cannot do that with other rolls.
This would probably immediately purge 25% of people from the rolls — fictitious people who never lived at the claimed address (such addresses often have 100 people registered from there), dead people, people who have moved away.
You also need to be able to cross-check the new rolls across states to be sure people are not registered in two or more states.
The solutions to election integrity are not difficult. What’s missing is the political will and Republicans who can stand up to the ridiculous charges of “racism” and “voter suppression” from the Democrats. The fact that the Democrats level these charges all the time agains simple fixes that do not require much of citizens is prima facie evidence the Democrats want to continue (and expand) cheating.
Unfortunately, I do not see ANY Republican champions in Congress who have made election integrity the hill to die on.
Open borders (which enable massive-scale election fraud) and election mischief by Democrats are the undoing of our nation.
