Documentaries such as "Recount" and "Hacking Democracy" have made me sick to my stomach - and for a while now I've been questioning the fundamentals of the 'Democracy' that we have been shoving down other countries' throats all these years.

I for one am thrilled to hear about something like this. I think it is long overdue and it has a number of benefits:

1) will save taxpayers money in the long term

2) will create a platform that many developers can review and audit, thus helping improve security and preventing fraud

3) will create a de-facto standard for how we vote, and hopefully over time become used by more and more counties

4) will provide a better level of technology so even poorer counties can (hopefully) upgrade to a high tech and more accurate voting system
