These things are way too easy to hack and I don't understand why.
They need to isolate the computers, meaning not have them online at polling locations for hours, days, weeks, months in advance. If someone wanted to hack my computer all they need to do is know where it is. If my computer is physically not online, they cannot access it. When it's time to send the data somewhere, download it onto a one time use flash drive, plug it into another computer, and then have that compute physically dial in using an old school modem on a random number.
This is what they do at the CIA, etc. Their highest level security computers are not physically online.
