Millions of voters will be casting their ballots electronically this election. But they’ll be using a technology that is far from proven and is vulnerable to compromise. Hack The Vote is an in-depth look at the still-unsolved problems with electronic voting, and GoTV’s investigative team has spoken to the experts with in-depth knowledge of those issues. We have the first on-camera interview with a former employee of Diebold, one of the companies that make these machines. This whistleblower talks about company practices that compromised the security of these machines and the votes for which they were used; the mechanical issues that make these machines unreliable, and how easy it is to steal an election. We have video of a Princeton University project during which a Diebold machine is hacked and a vote-swapping virus is installed. And we interview an expert, who shows us one of these e-voting machines and demonstrates how easy it is to compromise. Don’t cast a ballot this year until you watch GoTV’s special investigative report Hack The Vote. It’s on your cell phone now.
