Because of computerized systems to count ballots in the USA it is possible to hack democracy to the extent that the exact wrong answer comes out of some Diebold (and other) voting machines. This has been proven without any doubt in a HBO film entitled ‘Hacking Democracy’. Some serious voting anomalies found in Alaska and Minnesota this month, not to mention Ohio and Florida in 2000 and 2004, may be related to this type of hack.
