Anonymous Coward User ID: 76772276 United States 07/17/2018 12:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Top Voting Machine Vendor Admits It Installed Remote-Access Software on Systems Sold to States ES&S is the top voting machine maker in the country, a position it held in the years 2000-2006 when it was installing pcAnywhere on its systems. The company's machines were used statewide in a number of states, and at least 60 percent of ballots cast in the US in 2006 were tabulated on ES&S election-management systems. It’s not clear why ES&S would have only installed the software on the systems of “a small number of customers” and not all customers, unless other customers objected or had state laws preventing this.

Now, it was done to only a "small number of machines". |
