You make no sense. You have been brainwashed. Please, stop repeating what you have been told in school without thinking about it. Read Dijkstra's "Go To Statement Considered Harmful" essay and think about what he says there. Then read the "Go To Statement Considered Harmful:
A Retrospective" essay and think again.

Ohio Study Confirms Voting Systems Vulnerabilities 91

bratgitarre writes "A comprehensive study of electronic voting systems (PDF) by vendors ES&S, Hart InterCivic and Premier (formerly Diebold) found that 'all of the studied systems possess critical security failures that render their technical controls insufficient to guarantee a trustworthy election'. In particular, they note all systems provide insufficiently protection against threats from election insiders, do not follow well-known security practices, and have 'deeply flawed software maintenance' practices." Some of these machines are the ones California testers found fault with last week.
