Some months back I let you know that tampering with Diebold election equipment may have altered the outcome of the 2004 election.
Now comes an actual demonstration of the hack against the Diebold Opti-Scan system, via Bruce Schneier.
As it turns out, the hack can be carried out by one person, and the results tampered with in such a way that the tampering is completely undetectable by normal canvassing procedures. The election results have never been in more doubt than now; this Diebold system simply cannot be trusted.
