Voting Map: Potential for Hacking
|
The voting machine you'll encounter on Nov. 4 takes the most important right in a democracy — your right to vote — and makes it real. And just like the people who make and use them, machines aren't perfect. DVICE has researched all of the nation's voting machines to tell you what technology you'll be using on Election Day and what potential problems and vulnerabilities it might have. Click here for a detailed explanation of how we rated every state's machines.
Most of the country (56%) will cast ballots into optical scanners, which are more vulnerable to hacking than antiquated voting gear like punch-card readers. Only electronic models are more vulnerable than optical scan, coloring some states red.
