They should be some of the most error free software that our society has produced.

That is what I was hoping was the point that people would get from my post. You just use better words than I do!

Yeah, it is a great point that I imagine is lost on most normies who are listening to these reports about software glitches. I'd want to say stop, and think about that for a second.

Given the significance of an election, wouldn't you imagine these things were being tested and refined all of the time?

How do we get to election day and have malfunctioning software, not just that but as frequently as we are seeing.

It strains common sense to think that this would happen naturally, as in pure incompetence or something. Maybe. Maybe since the government doesn't collect money directly for this surety there is no incentive for them to do this quality assurance? I don't know. It might just get pulled into the general problem of our tax dollars not serving our interests.

LOL. You techies never did really understand how to explain it to the rest of us but that's ok, we still love you.
