Articles such as this one are becoming more common and are very disappointing. Open Source is nice to have, but does not make electronic voting secure. Only a voter-verified paper audit trail is sufficient ...https://increment.com/open-source/voting-for-transparency/ …
With finite resources, we should focus only on the latter, because we know it works. Efforts on securing machines are wasted IMO and create a false sense of security. Elections have probably already been hacked, and we can't know for sure. Sad and nuts.

Unfortunately the siren song of technology is strong & many governments around the world already use various electronic voting machines, are looking to introduce them, or increase their usage. I agree that there needs to be campaigns against this.

Most politicians are insufficiently informed / complicit. All commercial voting machines that I'm aware of have fundamental security flaws &/ gaps. Vendors are only interested in providing the bare minimum that sells.
