Electronic voting redux

[andygates]

This one should get gedhrel's blood boiling: Sequoia Voting Systems's machines have a little button on the back that puts them into Manual Mode where you can vote all you like. Mmm, secure and traceable. Full dirt at the declaredly-partisan Smirking Chimp (link fixed!). 

So, all you Americans lucky enough to be faced with a Sequoia machine and unhappy with untraceable, riggable, stealable elections sold on the backs of tech from prominent Party donors (and they can't prove it ain't so), press that button and vote a gazillion times for the most absurd candidate you've got. That way, you void the thing without putting a main-party fight on it, and the ludicrous and obscene pork-barrel that is electronic voting can be put to a decent death (or at least to decent standards, which are out there and which everyone who gives a damn knows include a freaking PAPER TRAIL).

If you get arrested for vote-interference I will bail you with my pocket money and stand you the price of a beer, too.
