    So a couple of points:

    “could even develop malware designed to be installed with minimal physical access to the voting equipment by unskilled accomplices to manipulate the vote counts. Attacks could also be launched by compromising the vendors responsible for programming systems before elections, enabling large-scale distribution of malware.”

    1. This is not the bullshit theory of “ZOMG! They were connected to Starlink! Elon Musk! Elon Musk!”

    2. There is no such thing as “security” if someone has physical access to the device.

    All it would take is one hand recount with a difference of a few percentage points to really kick off a movement to confirm there weren’t issues. It’s does still seem so far there are unaccounted for votes still, but haven’t seen any definitive complaints about changed or altered votes.
