Not to say it couldn't have spread to the whole, but I doubt it. Alagoas is a very poor state, and has had voting fraud about forever. Paper ballot, e-voting, nothing will help there.<br>Again, not to say our voting machines are perfect (far from it) but in any case it is way easier to audit e-voting than paper ballots. And as voting is mandatory in Brazil, I would guess the results kinda even out.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rafael Oliveira]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 11:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[The point you're missing here is that, you don't even NEED computer saavy.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NeoteriX]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 8:15PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[hmmmmm will those keys work ont e Diebold ATM machines too?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jimimac]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 9:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Plus, the Brazilian voting machines are made by a company called Procomp, which -funny enough- was bought in 1999 by...

This is documented beyond dispute.  Diebold has consistently demonstrated an incapability, an unwillingness and an overall incompetence in providing a secure voting machine, a secure, software integrity audit, or any responsiveness to a slew of demonstrable insecurities in their system.  <br><br>And still they're in business.  And still politicians and pundits pretend they're secure.  No matter how blatant their lies, evasions, cover-ups and incompetence becomes.  <br><br>Truly, it is time to destroy these machines.  That's right- destroy them.  Sabotage them.  Render them unuseable.  We have enough liquids, glues, and quick acting epoxies to cripple these machines and MAKE our unresponsive politicians listen.  <br><br>Being polite, being civil, being "reasonable" has done NOTHING.  It's time to shut Diebold down. It's cheap, it's easy and it's possible to do without being caught.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[crescentdavid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 3:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Who hired these clowns anyway?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 5:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh Diebold, whatever next?<br><br>The pen is indeed mightier than the shoddy, insecure, yet widely used e-voting machine...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 5:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Rafael Oliveira is completely right, there is a mistake regarding that information about 1/3 brazilian e-voting machines showing signs of manipulation. I agree that the system isn't perfect and having a manipulation-proof system in Alagoas and other states are quite hard. It's being said that they are already dealing with the problem... In my opinion fraud with regular voting system is quite easy anyway and the technology don't have room to develop further. On the other hand e-vote can improve a lot, despite the results getting out a lot faster.<br><br>Regards.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fabio]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2007 7:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Did you guys forget about the south Florida mess? paper more accurate HAHA. There is corruption every election, I wonder how many dead people voted in the last presidential election or how many people voted multiple times. The security around our elections in a joke, electronic or paper you can cheat and people do. But this key mess is a bit silly why doesn't Diebold just remove there crappy locks and make a nice little spot for a standard master lock? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 27th 2007 10:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Hacking e-voting machines can be hard, Diebold shows you how]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/hacking-e-voting-machines-can-be-hard-diebold-shows-you-how/</guid><description><![CDATA[Umm, I think the question is what would your motives be in using a machine known to be prone to tampering or malfunction? Hmm, maybe you could manipulate the results of an election and if scrutiny was placed upon you for your nefarious actions you would have a direction to deflect criticism.
