Comment on Software used to count Australian Senate votes is a “trade secret”

Comments

how hard is to add numbers?

Imagine if the principa mathmatica was decided upon by democracy.

That hard.

still i cannot comprehend that, the software simply has to measure the number of votes...

forgive me for being snarky. The real challenge is surviving voter manipulation.

Parties would intercept communication, and compromise machines.

Voting machines have to remain secure, despite opponents having physical access to the machine, and currently security doctrine is basically "Once your opponent has physical access, you lose."
