I'm really pissed off that I can't find the rebuttal article to the 11-year-old thing. The gist of it though was that they're basically given free reign to physically access the machines in conditions that are not comparable to what an actual in-service election machine would be under. They were basically saying "yeah, no shit someone might be able to steal your gold if you just toss it in a shoebox under your bed, but not when that shoebox is in a safety deposit box".

Electronic voting has always worried me, but I think the headline is more alarmist than the reality calls for.
