More Diebold E-Voting Vulnerabilities

Posted by timothy on from the good-to-get-the-counties-involved dept.

presmike writes "ok, it looks like Diebold has more to worry about now that it is possible to change votes with a 5 line VB script. 'The vulnerabilities involve the Global Election Management System, or GEMS, software that runs on a county's server and tallies votes after they come in from Diebold touch-screen and optical-scan machines in polling places.'"

    Is there an archetype for this yet? The "annoying foreign holier-than-thou asshole?" Is that it? Or maybe the "smirking Canadian dipshit?" Or how about the "sarcastic off-topic dumbass?"

    Let's have a decision here so I know the proper kind of insult to reply with.

    >> All you need is a programmer or two who have strong political sentiments and enough knowledge and, BAM!, SCOTUS awards Bush another 4 years.

    You say that like Scalia won't do it anyway. You laugh, but I'm not joking. See you all in Gitmo...
