Vulnerabilities in touchscreen voting machines get most of the attention on election system security, but backend systems can be equally insecure, with equally serious consequences. Excellent reporting from @KimZetter .https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/mb4ezy/top-voting-machine-vendor-admits-it-installed-remote-access-software-on-systems-sold-to-states …

Final thought: If you're worried about the integrity of the 2018 election, it's extremely unlikely that many jurisdictions could change their voting machine technology at this point even if they wanted to. Focus on getting them resources to secure registration & back end systems.

You do not mention Oregon's Vote by mail. 20 years. Do you see any problems? Wish voters did not have to buy a stamp, but plenty of drop off sites. Let's work on the positive.
-
Vote-by-mail doesn't fix the problem of voting under duress. Broadly: Oregon has a civic culture that (mostly) values free and fair elections. Other states don't. That needs to be fixed first.
-
Indeed. Absentee ballots are a tradeoff (between ballot secrecy/coercion and access, among other things). It certainly makes sense for individuals who can't reach a polling place, but it's not clear what the implications of scaling it to everyone are.
-
Look to Oregon. What do you mean by not clear implications of scaling it up. Is Oregon so special? 20 years. A lot of studies. This is not Absentee Ballots. Everyone who is registered to vote gets a ballot. Easy.
-
The problem with take-home, mail-in voting (which is what both absentee ballots and Oregon's system do) is that it becomes possible to sell your ballot or be coerced into revealing your vote to someone. That's historically a significant type of retail vote tampering in the US.
-
Is it a good tradeoff in practice? Unclear. One of the problems is there are multiple threats, and solving one well often increases exposure to others, across much of this problem space.
-
In any event, whether you use mail-in ballots or not has no bearing on insecurities in the back-end systems, which was the subject of this thread.
-
To follow on on the attacks regarding even mail home ballots, if you were African American in 1960, you white boss could require you to bring your ballot into work and fill it out “right” or lose your job.

this is why
@FaberCastellUSA makes the technology we need to be sure elections are clean. It’s not hard, or even challenging, to find & train volunteers who keep each other honest for ballot counts of paper. Securing instantly-available, fast-tallying databases is...really hard. -
It's really not nearly as simple as that. Sorry.
-
Well, I’ve been in software dev for enough decades that I’m highly confident: paper ballots provide the best combination of privacy, security & audit trail currently available. But if you wanna fight for a digitized solution that has to be perfect to be ok...QA away. Code fast!

Not interested in arguing with you, but I don't think you've actually read anything I've written here.

It's not that hard, all you have to do is trust the squirrels. They will solve everything. Trust the squirrels. :-p

We're going to need a bigger squirrel.
