Nevada is going back to the drawing board on getting electronic voting machines because of concerns with the security of the machines.

They should know something about security -- The computerized slot machines are some of the most secure pieces of electronics ever made. They are locked down, verifiable and trusted. They put people in jail regularly for attempting to trick them -- because they are auditable.

Also, slot machine manufacturers understand that they are building single-purpose machines, and use single purpose operating systems.

So why the hell aren't we having the slot machine manufacturers make the voting machines? Apparently, casino profits are more important than democracy.
