Express Vote XL Survives Penetration Testing by Tech Students

Northampton County uses the ExpressVote XL as its voting system at the polls. It combines the convenience of a touch screen with a voter-verifiable paper trail. Despite a rather inauspicious beginning, it has worked well in two subsequent elections. 

Paper ballot purists have insisted the voting system is vulnerable to hacking. So a group of students at Rochester Institute of Technology were given the opportunity to penetrate the machine. After weeks of trying, the cyber squad failed

  1. That's your higher educational for you. Bet the Russians or Chinese can do it. If it's programmable, then any system can be hacked.

  4. I can understand people questioning results of an election but when none of substantial impact are found. Then they should just shut up. Or they should be given a warning and if they persist be declared a terrorist and dealt with by those rules.

    Face it none of the people spreading election steal crap have been able to produce any evidence. Even the Arizona goat screw produced nothing they could use.

    Instead they are using the election lie to raise money and steal from the cult followers they have. Supposedly Trump has raised over $80 mill this year but has spent nothing on the things that he said it would be for. Just like he did when he raised all those legal fees. Where did they go in his pocket. And probably all this new money will too.

    Oh and on another trump note. He has not paid his lease on the post office in Washington DC for almost two years. The moratorium on eviction expired like many of his cult wanted. His organization should have been the first to get thrown out on their ars. Just getting the same applied to him and his organization as he wanted on so many else.

  5. The cases about sanctions of attorneys who filed frivolous election cases--as they pretty much all were--are documenting just how little evidence there was of voter fraud. But I'm sure that dead-enders like the first commenter will, nonetheless, claim that any election won by Democrats is "rigged". But judges understand that little thing called "proof".

  6. Question results of elections don't you dare unless you are a left wing liberal

  7. Have you seen what passes for a college education these days? I'm not impressed. Most can't say from whom the US won Independence.

  8. WE could have the Arizona firm check the ballots in Pa and Northampton county.

    That's OK. After all, I'm guessing you don't know who's actually the President.

  10. "I'm guessing you don't know who's actually the President."

    I don't think the President knows who's actually the President.

  11. Well, 2:45, I think he knows because everywhere he goes, they call him "Mr. President."

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
