RT @WeldPond: Obama campaign uses Yubikeys. Clinton campaign did not. Cyber security is table stakes for candidates. https://t.co/KG7Hu3y8Vu
Ouch. Encrypted computer stuff not so great, after all.
I just hope they’re learning how to goose-step.
Wow. Thanksgiving will be awkward.

Despicable.
«But as diligent as he has been about purging eligible citizens from the voter rolls, Mr. Kemp has been just as lax about the cybersecurity of the state’s 27,000 electronic voting machines. Although there were a series of warnings about the ease with which they could be hacked, Mr. Kemp did not respond. Georgia’s electronic voting machines, which run on Windows 2000, leave no paper trail; as a result, there is no way to verify whether the counts are accurate or whether the vote has been hacked.
But the Department of Homeland Security warned him that hacking was a possibility. He ignored that until 2016, when, at a DefCon hacker convention in Las Vegas, an organization took control over the way Georgia’s voting machines register and store votes, although it had little expertise in voting matters. Mr. Kemp finally accepted federal dollars, which he had refused for years, to update some of the machines. But his efforts were too little, too late.»

Imagine being so hateful–making lifelong choices led by that hate–that you vote against your own interests just to spite those you hate. So consumed with hatred that even those you hate feel sorry for you.
We might be able to cool the planet, but damage to crops will be offset by decrease in production (so people will still starve).

Kobach over Colyer by 191 of 252,323 votes cast (0.08%). Every vote counts. Since it’s Kansas, I guess Kris Kobach, Mr. “We Need Voter ID Because Voter Fraud is Rampant” will be the next governor of Kansas.
