This is looking awful:

Boxes look unpatched/out of date. No CISO personnel: https://twitter.com/GossiTheDog/status/1026603800365330432

Good news is it doesn't seem to actually be blockchain: https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2018/06/05/the-west-vir...

Block chain developed by someone halfway competent would be better than glorified Access databases. From what I've read most election systems don't bother to have any cryptographic record whatsoever.

Ugh. Just use paper for voting. If the 2000 recount taught us anything, it’s the importance of a paper trail. Just take the time to count the ballots by hand.
