  Most people see electronic voting as a mere technical evolution of ballot paper voting and therefore they are confidently waiting for hardware and software that will make electronic elections as secure as remote banking.
  However not only because the greatest supporters of electronic voting are ruling governments and hardware & software vendors, but also becuase the results of electronic elections are not verifiable, it is clear it will be sitting governments to declare the winners and the losers without any possibility of being checked.
  Then we must conclude the purpose of computerized voting systems is to usurp the power of the people by using electoral fraud.

  Yes, and THAT’S how you rig elections.
  If anyone thinks that elections are fair, they’re in for reality. A COMPUTER PROGRAMMER decides the president of a country.
