Dominion voting systems
This morning.
Dominion voting machines – used in 16 states – have vulnerabilities that leave them susceptible to hacking, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency says in an advisory sent to state election officials.
Via AP:
The advisory is based on testing by a prominent computer scientist and expert witness in a long-running lawsuit that is unrelated to false allegations of a stolen election pushed by former President Donald Trump after his 2020 election loss.
University of Michigan computer scientist J. Alex Halderman agrees that there’s no evidence the vulnerabilities were exploited in the 2020 election. But that wasn’t his mission, he said. He was looking for ways Dominion’s Democracy Suite ImageCast X voting system could be compromised. The touchscreen voting machines can be configured as ballot-marking devices that produce a paper ballot or record votes electronically.
In a statement, Dominion defended the machines as “accurate and secure.”
The advisory, obtained by The Associated Press in advance of its expected Friday release, details nine vulnerabilities and suggests protective measures to prevent or detect their exploitation. Amid a swirl of misinformation and disinformation about elections, CISA seems to be trying to walk a line between not alarming the public and stressing the need for election officials to take action.
Hmm.

really?
A review of 10 key states (Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin) finds that Dominion systems were used in 351 of 731 counties. Trump won 283 of those counties, 81 percent of the total.-WaPo.
Who owns wapo and how many government contract tenderships has that individuals corporation “won” since those elections?
duh.
“contract tenderships” wtf is that ?
go troll someone else you obnoxious gross disgusting troll and loser.
Lol..
Can’t even answer.. Failing like your weed business..
Say what you like about Johnny and his business Harney but he has your card and the SOQ monster has your address.
answer wha?
this drivel.
…how many government contract tenderships has that individuals corporation “won”…
…why bother at all,when you can not even write a sentence never mind formulate a question,answer what,a troll with a deep hatred of women.
try harder.
Explains bidens win
it’s more and more obvious now that the russians hacked into the election and changed the results
How come their boy lost then?
– Or are you referring to 2016?
Jiden boe
Now considering the Russians were supposed to back trump
You cannot have it both ways
One year after trump lost we now are looking at WW3
Luckily we use “stupid auld pencils” here.
+1
“stupid auld pencils”
waterproof too
Thankfully we do. Pretty hard to hack a pencil, ballot paper and manual system.
Anyway, not getting the point here about the Dominion voting machines.
ALL computers are liable to be hacked so who is to say that they were not hacked in 2016 or other voting machines were not hacked for republican candidates? It seems that the potential to be breached only mattered during one specific election.
The solution is pretty clear. Do not use voting machines.
Reminds me of NASA spending a fortune on a pen that would work in space – a Space Pen.
The Russian cosmonauts used a perfectly functioning pencil.
I loved that story until I read that both Russians and Americans used pencils and found them to be a pain in the behind (pencil shavings, graphite tips shattering etc) until they both moved to the ‘space pen’. The manufacturer (Fisher Pen Company) even gave the same discount to both American and Russian space agencies, which is nice.
Sometimes I hate doing background research. Kills the magic.
21st century revisionism.
Truth must out paul, no matter how much it hurts!
And, nobody from NASA sought to debunk the story for over 35 years?
It’s difficult to let go considering the flashy American design principle versus the practical plain Russian design.
Got to let it go, I guess, but I’m holding on to the believe that complicated solutions can have simple solutions.
The buzz of the all night count and count-centre theatre is worth the auld pencil too.
I want one of these for my pub
I cannot wait until
They are flogged off
I wonder what Norah Owen is thinking today. North Dublin was a test case for electronic voting in 2002.
Russia invades Drumcondra and installs a puppet regime….
