Edward Felten, a Princeton University computer science professor, along
with two of his graduate students on Wednesday stirred up controversy
surrounding the usage of electronic voting (e-voting) machines in U.S.
elections by releasing a paper that claims they were able to hack the

Last week when I ran across this news, I thought the
same thing you're thinking just now. Democrats will start whining
that they lost this or that election because Karl Rove rigged E-voting
machine software ( it's never because the American public hate them and their policies)
. Great. Damn that Karl Rove! Let's fix his wagon
good this time. Ban them! Go back to pencil marked
ballots that are cast on election day, in the presence of poll
watchers, and require picture voter ID. Hey, wait, where'd you go?
But, why bother? In some states anyway. Like Washington .
