Paperless electronic voting machines used throughout the Washington region and much of the country "cannot be made secure," according to draft recommendations issued this week by a federal agency that advises the U.S. Election Assistance Commission....
In a report hailed by critics of electronic voting, NIST said that voting systems should allow election officials to recount ballots independently from a voting machine's software.

Duh.
And while you're at it, you might as well kiss a whole bunch more money goodbye, this to buy optical scan equipment, which NIST recommends, to replace the paperless junk.
The folks at Diebold and their grinning ilk will be happy to kiss it hello.
