Internet Voting a "disaster in waiting"

Internet voting systems too insecure, researcher warns

http://j.mp/yHJ2nU  (Computerworld)

   "Internet voting systems are inherently insecure and should not be
    allowed in the upcoming general elections, a noted security researcher
    said at the RSA Conference 2012 being held here this week.  David
    Jefferson, a computer scientist at Lawrence Livermore National
    Laboratories and chairman of the election watchdog group Verified
    Voting, called on election officials around the country to drop plans
    to allow an estimated 3.5 million voters to cast their ballots over
    the Internet in this year's general elections."

insecure since I wrote "Hacking the Vote" in 2000:
