bratgitarre writes "A comprehensive study of electronic voting systems (PDF) by vendors ES&S, Hart InterCivic and Premier (formerly Diebold) found that "all of the studied systems possess critical security failures that render their technical controls insufficient to guarantee a trustworthy election". In particular, they note all systems provide insufficiently protection against threats from election insiders, do not follow well-known security practices, and have "deeply flawed software maintenance" practices. Following up on the devastating results of the California study earlier this year, the evaluation was commissioned by Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner and conducted by a sizable team of academics and industry consultants. Will Secretary Brunner be forced to decertify (and recertify?) Ohio's elections equipment less than three months before the state's March 3 primary, similar to California's Debra Bowen?"
