"Under Ohio’s policy, if registered voters miss voting for two years, they are sent registration confirmation notices. If they do not respond and do not vote over the following four years, they are purged."
A stronger argument can be made that opposition to this supports voter fraud.
Has it occurred to you that those bugs were introduced/engineered by state-sponsored intelligence agencies in the first place? The GRU has their own zero-days.
Oh please! How does one function in life without an ID period? Do you know anyone who is eligible for a US ID that doesn't have one or can't find a way to get one? What are we talking about,.0000001% of the population (if that)? No social services that I'm aware of are available to anyone who cannot produce an ID.
I'm sorry, Russia is a global superpower with unlimited financial and human resources devoted to spycraft and hacking. To suggest that an international spy is using public Twitter posts and emails to a random researchers asking for zero-day exploits is beyond absurd. It's comical to anyone who knows anything about intelligence agencies or tech security, but of course the target of this propaganda tends to be the lowest common denominator who will just believe anything.
The "butterfly ballot" was an invented delay tactic by the Gore team used to convince elderly frequently Democratic voters in W. Palm Beach county (primarily Jews) that they accidentally voted for Pat Buchanan. The "hanging chad" controversy was also contrived by the Gore team.
Since when does a state-sponsored spy need to troll a researcher for hacking tools? This exchange is pretty strong evidence that the person is not a sanctioned "spy".
I'm with you on #1 and #3 but it's too time-consuming and expensive to verify same-day registrations. Why not just register to vote when getting your free ID?
Actually yes, I do, and I support small local governments. Tax dollars are better spent on services for the actual taxpayers, not tech experiments. That's not to say basic security should be ignored, however.
Nothing is properly documented. Most of it was written a decade or more ago and there's no political will to change it. Why should they if it still works just fine for its purpose?
In my experience the linux zealots have little experience with how the real world operates. Everything is a mental exercise with perfect assumptions where cost is no object.
This is a local government we're talking about. What are the costs to retrain every employee? What are the costs for all the new hardware that doesn't have Linux drivers? What are the costs to rewrite the water-billing software, payroll software, work order system, etc, and then integrate them all together? How many Linux gurus are willing to take the pay cut to work at the same rate as a Windows guru?
It might sound great as an academic exercise but in the real world it is not cost effective. If Linux ever did approach the market share of Windows then the Ransomware problem on Linux would grow to be just as bad.
Ah yes France. Where regulation is so burdensome companies won't hire new employees so unemployment levels are through the roof, especially for young people.
Nobody is forcing you to work for a company that treats you poorly. That's what choice and freedom is all about.
The 10th Amendment reserves rights for the states that aren't outlined in the Constitution. The rights in question are pretty well outlined in the Constitution. This is a huge waste of taxpayer money and is little more than a fundraising effort by politicians right before an election.
The Federal DOJ already dropped their case against DD and reimbursed them legal fees. Somehow I doubt a Federal Marshall will be turning off their servers now.

In your city 1 in 20 adults do not have an ID? That just isn't believable.
Provisional balloting procedures already exists. The post I was replying to appears to be demanding something entirely different.
This is a pretext for voter suppression?

It's more plausible that you're the Russian spy sent here to make Democrats look like imbeciles.

Because of how easily traceable it is.

How is this a "right-wing" voting issue? Which party has always been against voter ID laws and removing the deceased from voter rolls?

You made the assertion, burden of proof is on you.

The Russians have never hacked an election.

Say what? Utility bills? Water meter readings? Sewage stats? Accounts payable? Payroll?
That's what your municipal gov't does.

Support costs for Linux tend to exceed those of Microsoft.
The typewriters were more useful than Linux.

You can already mill a receiver for about $40 and have been able to for 50+ years, legally.
"I don't know if you have kept up with recent news but it seems more like NRA is a money laundering front for Putin."
That's how political propaganda works. You've just demonstrated that you will believe anything the demagogues tell you to because Go Team!
