72. Voting equipment is not networked

Except in a very small number of jurisdictions. That means to compromise machines you have to physically touch every machine. Given the strict physical security for the equipment, it takes a lot of people to carry to carry out large scale fraud due to the number of machines and jurisdictions. Like a lot of potential computer security threats, it all sounds very dangerous until you look at all the safeguards in place to protect and verify machines. Compromising a computer when given physical access is possible - compromising thousands of machines in hundreds of jurisprudence is highly improbable. That the key failing with a lot of “security problems” - they can’t scale because the decentralized nature of elections requires a huge conspiracy with large number of people with access to highly protected equipment, all who have to execute flawlessly without getting caught.

All of these threats are technically possible but because they are known they can countered, which they do with layers of physical and cyber security. It’s not like the movies.
