Hacking a Diebold Voting Machine

Mark Elliott, Assistant Editor of Paranoia: The Conspiracy & Paranormal Reader, sent along this graphic to me today. Is this real? Is it really that easy to hack a Diebold voting machine? If so, I'm glad we don't use these touch screen machines here in Rhode Island. My home state is corrupt enough as it is!

Anyone have any comments about the possibility of election tampering using these machines?

Are we just too paranoid? We'd like to hear from you.

  1. Maybe it SHOULD be that easy to hack a voting machine, because people with the initiative to do so should have their votes counted much more than all the other dumb asses who voted! That's how dumb this whole concept of voting is! Vote shmote - no matter who you vote for, some corrupt jerk always gets in anyway.

  2. It has been wisely said:

    Democracy assumes there are extraordinary capabilities in ordinary people.

    Democracy is running the circus from the monkey cage.

    Would you rather have a monarchy?

    I don't know if I'd want a king. Bowing just isn't my thing.
