When you have an entire village dedicated at DefCon dedicated to voting machine hacks and politically-motivated security 'experts' telling us there's nothing to see here and we had the 'most secure election ever', people with any sort of intelligence start losing faith in the system.

Paywalled, so I can't tell if this is really "voting machines", or merely ballot tabulators. There is some experimental evidence that tabulators produce faster, more accurate counts than by hand.

USA 2000 presidential election was brought to you by voting machines.
