Ohio Secret Ballot Compromised - Methodology Exposed - Fair Elections NOW! - Care2.com:
Privacy expert James Moyer and data analyst Jim Cropcho have discovered a critical flaw in Ohio’s election system that represents a severe threat to the privacy rights of Ohio voters. Using public records, Moyer and Cropcho can demonstrate how to retrieve an individual’s cast ballot in several affected Ohio counties.
“The existence of this vulnerability represents a betrayal of Ohioans, who deserve to vote in security and confidence, free from concerns that secret ballots can become public knowledge,” Moyer said.
The technique takes advantage of the time stamps found on voting machine paper tapes in conjunction with the serial numbers assigned to the voters, which are recorded by the poll workers in the poll books.
