The title sucks. But watch it anyway.

Tonight on HBO.

What's wrong with the title? "Hacking" implies hackers, and hackers implies spooky evil Internet vandals. But folks, the hackers are the good guys here. It's the hackers who are sounding the alarm, and have been sounding it until finally, about five years late, the corporate press is at last catching on. The villains here are the politicians, the money pushers, and the corporate interests that have foisted these outrageously insecure systems on the voting public - the selfsame villains who stand to benefit by it. So, Stealing the Vote possibly; Corrupting the Vote certainly. But if you get HBO on your tele-vision machine watch it anyway.
