There are plenty of instances of rigged elections before machine voting. All it takes is corruption. There are plenty of examples, from Tammany Hall to Chicago 1960. The system works in Canada mostly because it is run by Canadians. Americans are much more corrupt.
With that being said, I think we should go back to paper ballots. If the Republicans are worried about multiple voting, we can go to the Iraqi system - have the voter dip their finger in indelible ink before they vote. All the people at the registration station have to do is look at their right hand.
