"Mom, why would people have computerized voting machines?.....
Anyone could hack into them and switch around the votes."

This question came today from my 8 year old son. If he can figure this out, why can't assorted state and municipal election officials around the country. :mad:

It sparked a rather long conversation in the car to say the least.
