Your implication is that whoever has the administrator passwords can tamper with the machine to affect the results. And that someone, who is not the general public, should have access to the passwords. How is that better? So certain chosen individuals an have the power to tamper with the machines, but no one else? Isn't that the exact problem that is concerning people?

Machines that cannot be completely publicly inspected shouldn't be used.

I'm not in favor of electronic voting either. There was a clear thing covered in this inspection that needs to be hidden. Whether that makes for a good election system is a separate matter.
