This amounts to an illegal secret ballot count. Only the private corporations, which are paid millions of taxpayer dollars to program the software, know whether the votes will be counted accurately. The newer computers even have modems enabling them to be accessed by other computers, telephone, satellite, or even a cell phone. The rigging of computer counted elections is essentially impossible to detect, or to prove. Internet voting leaves no paper trail, making it impossible to have a recount.
Internet voting is even more riggable, less secure and unverifiable than counting votes by computer.
This system is also computerized and also leaves no paper trail. The Florida vote count fiasco, especially the US Supreme Court's decision, has pressured each state to make vote counting uniform and computerized. Canada, Britain, Switzerland, India and Israel count their votes by hand. During the last election Canada counted 13 million votes in 4 hours. Forcing us to have our votes counted by unverifiable and riggable computers violates the US Constitution and the State constitutions.
