1292: Killing Mink
Electronic Voting Machines and Paper Trail Security
The mechanics of modern voting involve touchscreens that produce a human-readable paper strip, which is then scanned by a second machine. Concerns are raised about the "air bridge" between these computers and where the data goes after scanning. The discussion recalls past controversies involving Diebold machines and the potential for upstream vote manipulation in the digital tabulation process.
