You're right, it was a VERY interesting show.
I think the thing that surprised me the most was when the older guy (didnt catch his name) said that the push for electronic voting was mostly an administrative thing. Elections commissioners found paper to be too difficult to handle, store, transport, etc...
So for the convenience of a few, we've spent millions (billions?) of dollars converting to this bullshit computer system and brought our entire voting system into question?? WTF?
