    Enough with this American take, electronic voting works fine in Brazil, only right wingers complain about it, and the American ones also complained about their paper votes when they lose.

      What does the Brazilian electronic voting system do that allows you to trust it? I’m not trying to bait or anything I know nothing about it and want to be informed.

      Luckily in many European countries it is not used.

      I would credit institutions like the chaos computer club and other non-profits, which where instrumental in convincing the government about the dangers. It was a difficult battle against the corporate lobbyists, and is understandable that other countries could not fight against the corporate interests or corruption and succumb to use them.

      There where and still are so many issues with them, one of the most fundamental is described by Ken Thompson in his Reflections on trusting trust, which is especially effective for electronic voting machines, where no other way of verification is possible.

      Huston or whereever you are, you have problem. I live on other side of the pond. More specifically in certain biggest country, where Ella Pamfilova can pull out any number she wants from remote electronic voting.

      electronic voting works fine in Brazil

      It works here as intended too. Wins elections for Putin’s mafia.

      only right wingers complain about it

      4chanland, you have another problem. Putin is right wing. And he is super happy about it.

      and the American ones also complained about their paper votes when they lose.

      I don’t know what Americans complain about when they loose.
