Kulang. Here is another thing that can happen. 1. Find a "friendly" province. 2. Use fake ballots during election day. People will not know the difference between the fake and the original. 3. Pre program the PCOS firmware to accept fake ballots on election day. 4. Pre program the PCOS firmware to show rigged results. 5. When the results are in and people are not looking, stuff the ballots with the real ones.* 6. When an audit occurs, the machine (even with the digitally signed firmware) will produce the same result. * The real ballots can be mechanically shaded by high speed plotters. The signatures, thumb marks, etc. (if required) of voters can be faked by humans or by the plotters since signatures, thumbmarks have been encoded in digital form. They do not need to be perfect since in the case of a recount they might not be checked thoroughly.
