Top 10 Reasons Electronic Voting Threatens
Democracy
| 1. |
No
one can see an "Invisible Ballot" (IB). |
| 2. |
The "IB"
is the official
record of our vote (see 2.1.1.2), Sec of State
Kevin Shelley (6/15/04). |
| 3. |
No
physical evidence anyone even voted. |
| 4. |
Can't
do recounts (can only reprint totals). |
| 5. |
Examining
source code proves nothing.
The source code isn't the voting program.
The voting program can't even be found. |
| 6. |
An
Electronic Voting System is not an ATM. |
| 7. |
This
technology centralizes control and enables vote-tampering
nationwide. |
| 8. |
Entire
voting process has been privatized. |
| 9. |
Your
vote is what a Corporation says it is. |
| 10. |
By
eliminating the ability to detect fraud in an election,
all elections can now be declared free of fraud.
How can anyone prove otherwise? |
