Colorado Secretary of State site showed partial passwords for voting systems

DENVER (KDVR) — Colorado’s Republican party accused the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office of “quietly” removing a publicly accessible spreadsheet from the office’s website that “contained BIOS passwords for election systems in 63 of the 64 counties in Colorado.”

The GOP said in its release that there were over 600 “BIOS” passwords that were not encrypted or protected, and were open to the public for anyone who knew where to look. BIOS, or Basic Input/Output System, is how a computer’s operating system knows how to operate....

The Colorado Republican Party called on the Secretary of State’s Office to provide a series of assurances in writing to the GOP and the public...

The Colorado Republicans also asked for confirmation or a plan regarding how the “exposed systems” will or still meet the certification requirements of a “trusted build,” noting that a breach by a party with BIOS access may be difficult or impossible to identify....

Colorado Republican Party Chairman Dave Williams called the possible exposure of the election systems passwords “shocking.”

No one would need to know the BIOS password unless they wanted access to the inner workings of the system.
This is highly suspect.

You have to do it that way or use 0-0-0-0-0 otherwise TSA will break the lock.

Get rid of voting by computer; go back to paper ballots and hand counting of them.
