Voting machine fraud

09/10/12 post
Per our previous conversations with many of you regarding the vulnerability of compromising the electronic method of election tabulations, we are providing you with the following videos which represent a mere fraction of the available information substantiating what should be great concern about our election integrity.

After you have seen these videos we would like to talk again about possible methods for precluding this from happening.

While the title of the page indicates it's all about Ron Paul, the video has nothing to do with any particular campaign or candidate.

(The GEMS system mentioned late in the video is the central reporting location where data from all voting machines is collected and tabulated for a grand total.)

This video is a few years old but the machines are identical to ones being currently used nationwide, including Adams County, Colorado.

The same method of compromising these machines works on the touch screen machines at polling places.

Only about 15000 views for this video is shocking and indicates the apathy, or disbelief that such things can occur.

We experience the same attitude in trying to point out the vulnerability of these machines to being hacked.

I have worked extensively with the thorough testing and certifying these machines for election usage, using them during the election, and also signed as a head judge certifying the validity of the results, now leaving me feeling violated and used.

There's a second video, also a few years old, showing the process for altering one of the touch screen polling place machines.
It was produced in 2006 by Princeton University, which is the first video on the page for the link below.  It has had over 111,000 views, yet still nothing is happening to insure that this does not happen.  Numerous others are available on the page also.
