Hacking Democracy

With the election approaching this Tuesday, it is more important than ever to know what is going on with our election system and where exactly our votes are going. HBO is airing the documentary Hacking Democracy which exposes gaping holes in the security of America's electronic voting system. "Electronic voting machines count about 87% of the votes cast in America today. But are they reliable? Are they safe from tampering? From a current congressional hearing to persistent media reports that suggest misuse of data and even outright fraud, concerns over the integrity of electronic voting are growing by the day. And if the voting process is not secure, neither is America's democracy. "

I watched it this weekend and it really puts our whole voting system into question. We really have no idea what is going on. It is amazing! It will be airing on all HBO channels until December 3. Please, please watch it!
