Voting Security

[Unkotare]

Anyone else noting the increase in chatter by the federal government about security relating to the voting process in the wake of hacks (again) of dnc emails? A number of high-ranking democrats, including obama, have been talking about it with increasing frequency lately.


This talk itself is cause for serious concern.

They are concerned that the Russian hackers sharing their secrets could share the DNC's other secret when it comes to voting

I posted about this a couple days ago. Seawytch assured me that I had no idea what I was talking about, so no worries!

The danger is in the federal government usurping total control over the process. You know what happens after that...

Are people voting on-line anywhere? What kind of hacks would interfere with the voting process?

There are plenty of stories about this so if this one is not to your liking there are others. This one demonstrates actual hacking altering vote totals.

The DNC is a PRIVATE entity, not Government. If anything contained in DNC communications is classified Government information, then there are some illegal activities going on, which should be dealt with accordingly.

As for their campaign strategies and actions - however underhanded they may be - WGAF? The candidates who come out the sphincter of this process are basically all the same.

Some actual person counts the votes first, though, right? Instead of reporting them to "Voter Central" by computer, can't they just call on the phone?

Did you watch the video? The votes are altered as they are entered.

They only cared when it threatened the DNC.
