Quote:They buy the software and give up complete control of the election process.  What a great deal for the public.  We pay for software that lets our elections be controlled from Barcelona.

 

Why don't we have open source election software?  Why not have a verification process that gives you an encrypted ID token you can use to vote from any PC or smart phone? 

 

The IRS should also offer tax calculation software that reflects every change in the tax laws. 

 

I'm going to assume that the local authorities are still administrating the election process, but the tally of votes would be generated in a report via the software. Voting fraud I think comes in because somebody can write an algorithm that could tamper with the counting process that is all automated now.

 

So Obama's "ELECTION FRAUD? WHAT'S THAT?" comment is beyond stupid.  He knows what it is and it obviously would not require collusion on behalf of the local authorities.  That was his answer, "You're telling me even places like Texas...." No, that's not what is being said.  The old lady handing out stickers at the voting booth is not in on it.
