This is from Pete, the Libertarian Party coordinator for an adjoining Florida county!
Dear Fellow Libertarian,
Dear Fellow Libertarian,
Voter fraud, especially since the age of Diebold machines, is a constant worry.
This fellow, testifying under oath, says he was hired by people in Florida (a former speaker of the Florida House no less?) to create code to produce voter fraud.
I was a poll watcher for one election, and one of the things I came away with was how the voting machines were handled and how the votes get transmitted to the collection point at the Supervisor of Elections.
The voting machines were stored in a closet in a church open to the public for days before and after the election. Supposedly it is easy to tell if machines are tampered with. You supposedly cannot implant new code in them. Not being an expert, I couldn’t say.
The vote totals were transmitted via encoded internet. Codes are hard to break, but I would think it possible to find some programmer, like the fellow in this video, who would do it for, let’s say, a million bucks. The amount may be greater or less, but the main point is it is possible to break codes and the cost is negotiable.
It seems to me with paper votes you could produce fraud, but it took tons of paper and a lot of participants. Now you need a lot of money and just one smart guy to make every vote 50-49%, and still give the Libertarians their 1% to make it all look legit.
I wonder what happens if two programmers are trying to spoof the same election at the same time.
Is this improvement?
Many thanks to Steve C for giving me this link.
Regards
Pete
