WND EXCLUSIVE IT'S COMING! OBAMA PANEL URGES VOTING WITH IPAD Presidential

In largely unreported text, President Obama’s special commission on
election reform recommended tablet computers, such as iPads, be used to
cast votes.
Obama’s 10-person Presidential Commission on Election Administration
released its recommendations Wednesday in a 99-page document available
online<https://www.supportthevoter.gov/files/2014/01/Amer-Voting-Exper-final-draft-01-09-14-508.pdf>
.
Much of the media coverage of the commission’s conclusions focused on a
summary of key recommendations provided by the White House.
The recommendations are:
- Modernization of the registration process through continued expansion
of online voter registration and expanded state collaboration in improving
the accuracy of voter lists;
- Measures to improve access to the polls through expansion of the
period for voting before the traditional Election Day, and through the
selection of suitable, well-equipped polling place facilities, such as
schools;
- State-of-the-art techniques to assure efficient management of polling
places;
- Reforms of the standard-setting and certification process for new
voting technology to address soon-to-be antiquated voting machines and to
encourage innovation and the adoption of widely available off-the-shelf
technologies.
However, a WND review of the commission’s full paper finds far more
extensive recommendations for electronic voting.
The document states: “Software-only products can be integrated with
off-the-shelf commercial hardware components such as computers, laptops,
tablets, scanners, printers, and even machine-readable code scanners and
signature pad products.
“Tablet computers such as iPads are common components of these new
technologies. They can be integrated into the check-in, voting, and
verification processes in the polling place.”
The commission called attention to new technologies that allow voters to
“pre-fill” sample ballots at home that can be later scanned at the polling
place.
The panel addressed concerns that such technologies can be hacked.
The commission stated: “The fact that a tablet or off-the-shelf computer
can be hacked or can break down does not mean such technology is inherently
less secure than existing ballot marking methods if proper precautions are
taken.”
The concept of electronic voting is already being tested.
WND reported in
2012<http://www.wnd.com/2012/05/trading-the-voting-booth-for-google-apple-apps/>
that
SCYTL, an international company that purchased the leading U.S. electronic
voting firm, announced the successful implementation of technology that
allows ballots to be cast using Google and Apple smartphones and tablet
computers.
Obama’s panel was chaired by Robert F. Bauer, the president’s personal
attorney who served as White House counsel until 2011.
