Regrettably James is making an incorrect analysis of the problem.
Agreed that there have been some expensive disasters associated with
computers and voting.
ASSUMING computers were as unreliable as James' sources imply, we had
best retreat from our computer-based civilization, much of which
depends on computers reliably doing their part.
BETTER to accept that computers are truly as dependable as their
successful use elsewhere demonstrates, study how we stumbled into our
election disasters, and plan to do better in the future.

Do to no one what you would not want done to you.
If you want peace, work for justice.
