Both have in common: the game is rigged against you.

At least its publicly known or assumed with slots

There's a reason slot machines are also known as reverse atms

If the kikes protected election integrity the same way they protected their jew-gold we would be in better shape.

This would have been the perfect title.

It would be the perfect title for half the posts on Voat for the past two weeks.

Making the comparison makes the whole situation a lot more fucked-up in perspective. The fact that petty amounts of cash are treated with such high security compared to the machines which decide the fate of nations clearly sows what a rigged game politics is.

Nevada gaming laws are setup to protect and promote their industry. It's made to look like consumer protection, but in the end it favors big casinos over consumers and over smaller ones. That's what you get with regulatory capture.
If there were some money to be made in ensuring voter confidence, they'd have better systems.

Not necessarily when one is on every single day and the other is used 2 maybe 3 days a year.

The stakes are far higher to be fair.

i've worked for a slot machine company. can confirm. the machines, and EVERYTHING about them is highly regulated, and verified to ensure the house always wins. in the casinos i worked in, the house controlled (to what degree they could) the odds on all slots. not on a machine-by machine basis, but on an average of the machines as a whole

If it’s IGT and roughly 5 years ago, then we’ve probably talked on the phone at some point.

I remember back when these machines were made by Diebold, who also made ATM's. Apparently you couldn't leave a voting machine unattended/supervised without it being hacked in 2 minutes. Meanwhile ATM's go for weeks or months without anyone even looking at it, and they're never hacked.

So, if these security items were tweaked for voting, a much more secure system could be created.

We spent millions on electronic voting machines in the early 2000s. Think one constituency might have gotten to use them once on a trial run. They’ve been dumped in a shed somewhere ever since cos they’re dodgy as fuck. Convicted terrorists being elected isn’t an especially rare occurrence here, we have abstentionist political parties who won’t even participate in elections and seemingly only exist to cause trouble, but even we won’t use electronic voting machines. We also show ID in order to cast a ballot.

FWIW all the electronic machines I've ever used, and this includes most of the states generate a paper ballot that the voter verifies and dumps in a box. The sketchy part is the counting and reporting.
[–] irelandLost ago
And do they count the paper ballot or the machine? If they count the paper ballot what’s the point of the machine, and if they count the machine numbers what’s the point of the paper ballot (they’re hackable, that’s why we dumped ours I think)?
