Was this the system?

/snippet
Brazil's electronic voting system relied on technology developed by Unisys Corp. and National Semiconductor Corp. of Santa Clara, Calif. Votes were cast on about 325,000 electronic machines, then encrypted and transmitted electronically over secure lines to Brazil's state capitals. From there, the votes were relayed electronically to tabulating machines in the country's capital of Brasilia for the final count.

The trouble is, it's not the technology used in the USA, but the people who mandate what is used. Election rigging in the USA must be one of those inherited rights things that USA cirizens get all hot under the collar about. I mean you read such trash in the newspapers about it.

They ought to use paper ballots then, plenty of guys available to count the votes, or can NOTHING be done correctly over there?

The trouble with "experts" is they are usually clueless and know very little about a subject. I dont care which university they have gone to, how many farking degrees they have got, or how many people they have B/S'd in the past.

/oops sorry end of rant -g-

/edit just love those quotes...

"Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything."

- attributed to Josef Stalin

"The right of voting for representatives is the primary right by which all other rights are protected.

"To take away this right is to reduce a man to slavery."

- Thomas Paine
