Voting

The main problem with Diebold voting machines is, they can be rigged. After watching the video, it it painfully obvious that it is too easy to tamper with the voting machines. Computers are imperfect and that make it easy for error to occur. This causes a problem for voters. How are they to know if their votes are being counted?

I don't think there is one way to keep voting safe from those who want to rig it. Whether its a computer or written out in pencil, people will always try to find away to change the way an election goes. I'm not sure it's possible for us to fix it. I thought that paper ballots would be our best bet, but after watching the video I realize that nothing is safe. If someone truly wants to change the outcome of an election, they will. No computer program can stop someone who truly wants to control the outcome of an election. I don't think technology plays a huge factor in this. I think this is human will at its strongest. And there is no way to stop a determined person.
