How much more secure would it be for precincts to phone in the results? Phone numbers are trivial to spoof. Perhaps the party headquarters could call the precincts instead of the precincts calling the headquarters. But that still leaves questions about the security of the telephone system itself, even with the spoofing issue out of the way. Are there any alternatives other than phoning in the results?
