Comparing the security of electronic slot machines and electronic voting machines:

Other important differences:
1) Slot machines are used every day, 24 hours a day. Electronic voting machines are used, at most, twice a year — often less frequently.
2) Slot machines involve money. Electronic voting machines involve something much more abstract.
3) Slot machine accuracy is a non-partisan issue. For some reason I can’t fathom, electronic voting machine accuracy is seen as a political issue.

Just be the one to count the votes and you control this psuedo democracy that we live in.
What a koke!
