A county supervisor in Riverside Co. California has opened his mouth and may regret it. He has challenged the local advocacy group, SaveRVote, to bring in a computer expert and hack their Sequoia voting machines. They say it can’t be done and are challenging someone to come in and prove them wrong. Any takers? / Recently EAC Commissioner Donnetta Davidson spoke before the “Florida State Association of Supervisor of Elections”.

Re: the Riverside challenge to a hack… Will it be the sort of contest as previously was yammered about by the e-voting proponents where the e-voting machine and working conditions are carefully set up in advance by the corporations… and no one was silly enough to walk into that trap?
Remember: e-voting proponents were still trumpeting that “challenge” far and wide as proof of machine invulnerability … regardless of the fact that it never happened.
