Study of FL voting machines that lost 18,000 votes
in a race that was decided by a few hundred. Someone actually succeeded in getting a study done.
Security expert and Princeton professor Ed Felten refused to participate in the study of what happened because he thought the scope was too restricted. Within that scope, the team didn't find maliciously written software, but remarkably bad software nonetheless. For example, there was a master password with only 256 possible values.
