claims that electronic voting machines used across much of the country are vulnerable to hacking

Get me physical access to two or more machines, and two or more of the removable media devices(the "ballots"), and I guarantee that the results can be pre-programmed across the entire network. And changed at will.

Of course you have to be someone with a doctorate in computer science to even begin the task, and that's a lot different standard than stuffing a Vota-matic machine in your car trunk.

And if you stick a wire coathanger in the computer running the system you might well be electrocuted.
