Doesn't it seem like voting software, which likely is thousands of lines of code, should be made open-source and go through some sort of approval process before being used for real? Isn't this software vetted or tested or examined at all?

There's no reason for it to be thousands of lines. An online shop that has multiple categories of products, calculates shipping, tax, etc. only needs about 10k lines of code. I can't imagine they need more than 100 to count votes. There's also no reason for something that I can write in a day or two to be proprietary.
