The nation's top voting machine maker has admitted in a letter to a federal lawmaker that the company installed remote-access software on election-management systems it sold over a period of six years, raising questions about the security of those systems and the integrity of elections that were conducted with them.
In a letter sent to Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) in April and obtained recently by Motherboard, Election Systems and Software acknowledged that it had "provided pcAnywhere remote connection software … to a small number of customers between 2000 and 2006," which was installed on the election-management system ES&S sold them.
The statement contradicts what the company told me and fact checkers for a story I wrote for the New York Times in February. At that time, a spokesperson said ES&S had never installed pcAnywhere on any election system it sold. "None of the employees, … including long-tenured employees, has any knowledge that our voting systems have ever been sold with remote-access software," the spokesperson said.

Now tell me they cannot alter these machines to their desired results. Are these companies run by democrats? Like the FBI is.
Nothing like outsourcing our "DEMOCRACY"....
Go back paper ballots counted by hand. There will always be someone trying to rig our elections when electronic devices are used.
Electronic and mechanical voting machines are inherently vulnerable and therefore cannot be trusted.
Of course deception lies and theft its how they operate. Big brother is here...a jackboot in your face forever
Treasonous!
They have to realize the far reaching ramifications.
