I
always thought that “sleepovers” were beyond the limit
of good security. In a court election contest in Wilkinson
Co Mississippi the county Circuit Clerk pled the fifth
amendment to several questions. One of the questions was
“Is it true you had a pre-election party that voting
machines were taken to?”
The results of the Ohio study
are stunning with regards to the ES&S iVotronic DRE. The
study found that a voter or poll worker can easily
recalibrate the touch-screen; access control can be
defeated by someone with a small magnet and a PDA or cell
phone; and there is a back door entry that can be gained
bypassing password requirements.
The Colorado SOS is
now telling the media that they may be able to use some of
the decertified voting systems by patching the software.
Patches require testing and certification. Is he getting
nervous?...

There is no better example of Australia’s politicised public service than its Home Affairs Secretary, Mike Pezzullo. In most other countries, he would have been the ideal conspirator in a coup, a tittletattler in the ranks, and bound to brief against those he did not like. Give him a dagger, and he was bound to use it. More
Once upon a time, the ‘Arab-Israeli Conflict’ was between Arabs & Israelis. Over the course of many years, however, it has been rebranded. The media is now telling us it is a ‘Hamas-Israeli Conflict.’ But what went wrong? Israel simply became too powerful. More
