Best of Black Box? 
Votes: 57 (A keeper?)

The internal logs of at least 40 Sequoia touch-screen voting machines reveal that votes were time and date-stamped as cast two weeks before the election, sometimes in the middle of the night.

Black Box Voting successfully sued former Palm Beach County (FL) Supervisor of Elections Theresa LePore to get the audit records for the 2004 presidential election.

After investing over $7,000 and waiting nine months for the records, Black Box Voting discovered that the voting machine logs contained approximately 100,000 errors. According to voting machine assignment logs, Palm Beach County used 4,313 machines in the Nov. 2004 election. During election day, 1,475 voting system calibrations were performed while the polls were open, providing documentation to substantiate reports from citizens indicating the wrong candidate was selected when they tried to vote.

Another disturbing find was several dozen voting machines with votes for the Nov. 2, 2004 election cast on dates like Oct. 16, 15, 19, 13, 25, 28 2004 and one tape dated in 2010. These machines did not contain any votes date-stamped on Nov. 2, 2004.

You can find the complete set of raw voting machine event logs for Palm Beach County here: http://www.bbvforums.org/forums/messages/2197/6628.html
Note that some items were not provided to us and are ommitted from the logs.

The logs rule out the possibility that these were Logic & Accuracy (L&A) test results, and verified that these results did appear in the final totals. In addition to the date discrepancies, most had incorrect polling times, with votes appearing throughout the wee hours of the night. These machines were L&A tested, and the L&A test activities appeared in the logs with the correct date and time.

According to the voting machine assignment log, these machines were not assigned to early voting locations. The number of votes on each machine also corresponds with the numbers typical of polling place machines rather than early voting.

Many of these machines showed unexplained log activity after the L&A test but before Election Day. In addition, many more machines without date anomalies showed this log activity, which revealed someone powering up the machine, opening the program, then powering it down again. In one instance, the date discrepancy appeared when someone accessed the machine two minutes after the L&A test was completed.

Voting machines are computers, and computers have batteries that can cause date and time discrepancies, but it does not appear that these particular discrepancies could have been caused by battery problems.

The evidence indicates that someone accessed the computers after the L&A and before the election, and that this access caused a change in the machine's reporting functions, at least for date and time. Such access would take a high degree of inside access. It is not known whether any other changes were introduced into the voting machines at this time. As learned in the Hursti experiments, it is possible for an insider to access the machines and leave no trace, but sometimes a hasty or clumsy access (such as forgetting to enter a correct date/time value when altering a record) will leave telltale tracks.

For another example of time discrepancies, see the Volusia County poll tapes

Approximately 4,000 votes were cast on these machines. The vote pattern and activity pattern appears to be identical to typical patterns found on Election Day -- All votes on the discrepant machines were spread over a 12-hour period, the length of time the Florida polls are open.

A member of the Palm Beach County electronic voting technical committee asked for the names of the technicians for Palm Beach who had access to the machines during that time, but the IT person, Jeff Darter, remained silent and never answered the question.

The Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections, Arthur Anderson, said that his staff had looked into the problem and that the votes were normal, it's just that the dates somehow changed.

Other anomalies
http://www.bbvforums.org/forums/messages/2197/6627.html (Anomaly info)

"Card Stuck" error: Occured at least 70,000 times.

The logs show that these cards were placed in the machine (which normally "swallows" the card like old-fashioned ATM machines, holding the card inside until the voting activites are complete, then ejecting it). The logs show that the card was authenticated, indicating that the machine believed the card was valid and had retrieved the appropriate ballot. Just before the vote was cast, the "card stuck" error appeared.

According to Michelle Shafer, who is now the spokesperson for Sequoia Voting Systems, a card stuck error stuck error appears "any time an activation card makes contact with the activator in the electronic voting unit and comes back out. This happens for the following reasons:

• A voter does not push the card all the way in so it comes back out
• A voter inserts the card again after having already used it to vote once...
• A voter inserts the card backwards
• The card actually gets stuck in the machine (not typical)

Previously, a Sequioa rep attributed the card stuck error to jiggling the card while it is inserted, however that doesn't seem to hold up since it would take a pair of tweezers and considerable manual dexterity to jiggle it.

As to putting the card in backwards or upside down, the message that normally appears is probably the "invalid card insertion" message. Because of the high number of these errors, and because no reports were produced indicating that any voters had reported the card popping out while they were trying to vote, Black Box Voting recommended to Palm Beach that testing should be done to replicate the error, making sure that the explanation holds water and that there is no adverse impact on the vote.

A member of the Committee asked whether a testing day could be set up, but Jeff Darter again sat silent, and despite some prodding, no such testing appears to be on the horizon.

AC Power Off Incidents Any of us who use computers know that it is not a good idea to yank the power from your machine while you are entering mission-critical data, especially without a backup. (The Palm Beach voting machines lack voter verified paper trails.)

Dozens of voting machines were turned off during the middle of the election while the polls were open. Machine # 6359 in precinct 1036 was powered down 128 times during the election.

Other power-related issues included "Main Battery not charging" and "backup battery too low".

"Unknown event" messages

A handful of machines showed "unknown event" messages, apparently of different kinds. This is an interesting error message, since the FEC guidelines frown on undefined exceptions. What is the point of having an error message if you don't reveal anything about what the error is?

Machine number 5875 in Precinct 1077 showed two different "unknown errors," listing them as "unknown error 219" and "unknown error 220."

auto-act election info bad and "auto-act write ver fail" messages also show up in the logs, with the "election info bad" message appearing hundreds of times.

Card encryption bad and Card read fail errors also appeared, with the encryption error message the more frequent of the two.

Polls closed and results report messages would be expected to appear on every voting machine at the end of the voting cycle, but these revealed problems with poll worker training and procedures at the administrative/training level. Some logs reported one report printed, some two, three, four or five, and several not only had no results tape printed but showed no closing of the polls. (Closing the polls tells the voting machine not to accept any more votes).

Simulation not sim task was a message that offered no ready explanation, and another that left us wondering was the "Maint Official AT Report" error. Call a maintenance official? Maintain an official AT report?

SyErr 23: RC/AT Verify
and Sys Err 31: Vote Not Rec 1 imply a system error of some type, at least one of which would affect the vote.

EEPROM failure
Now this is a message you don't want to see on a voting machine. It happened a couple dozen times. It is somewhat akin to seeing a "hard disk failure" message on your computer -- not a good thing at all if you are in the process of entering critical time-sensitive data.

The logs indicate that poll workers used significantly different operating procedures from one place to another. One of the least desirable actions some poll workers were taking was to perform multiple calibrations on the machines during the day, every few hours.

Hundreds of records were simply missing, not provided at all, making it impossible to complete a formal audit.

After meeting with the authorities to determine protocols about releasing the detailed report, Black Box Voting plans to publish a detail report giving full log details on the 40 machines accessed by an insider.

Sequoia machines - locations

Sequoia touch-screens are also used in Pinellas County (FL), Riverside, San Bernardino and Santa Clara countis (CA), New Mexico, New Jersey, and formerly in Snohomish County (WA).

Sun-Sentinel reporters have managed to get the two former Florida elections supervisors on record:

This for Volusia County, in an Orlando Sun-Sentinel story about anomalies in Palm Beach/Volusia County:

Heh. Regarding poll tape 305, the Orlando Sun-Sentinel smoked a quote out of former Volusia County Supervisor of Elections Deanie Lowe:

From Sun-Sentinel, Feb. 24 2006, by Kevin Connolly:
Elections officials said the tape is printed with the correct date. The perceived 18,000-year discrepancy apparently is a reference to a series of digits that appears to be a date: 01/24/104. Someone at Black Box Voting apparently thought that meant Jan. 24, 20,104.

Lowe said the series of numbers in question was not a date. She wasn't sure exactly what the numbers indicated and suggested they could have been a computer code or a staff error.

Which leaves us with two possibilities:

- This former elections official has absolutely no clue how to read a poll tape or what information it contains

or

- She's lying.

But although she doesn't know how to read a poll tape, Lowe is able to discern more than even computer experts can figure out.

"In any event, it didn't change the outcome of any race," she said.

Lowe's replacement, Ann McFall, had this to say:

"I think she's trying to sell a book and there's going to be chapter on Volusia County. And I wish her well on it."

www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/florida/orl-vblackbox2406feb24,0,234856.story?co ll=sfla-news-florida

And this from the Sun-Sentinel's Palm Beach reporter, Palm Beach officials:

"there's been no proof to substantiate their comments," LePore said. "Any time she claims she has proof, because she doesn't exactly know what she's looking at, the proof that she has doesn't have anything to do with what she's saying."

and the chief IT guy for Palm Beach County, Jeff Darter, made this statement, according to Sun-Sentinel reporter Anthony Mann:

"Harris' charge of votes cast before Election Day didn't happen."

And Tony Enos, the Elections Office voting systems manager, said no one had access to the machines to make the kind of unauthorized changes described by Harris.

"Voting machines are computers, and computers have batteries that can cause date and time discrepancies, but it does not appear that these particular discrepancies could have been caused by battery problems."

That's the understatement of the year. :-) The battery systems in these machines are similar to the systems in your PC. A small battery powers a little clock so when the computer is off, you don't lose track of the time.

Now, when your battery starts to get low, what happens? The time on your computer becomes less and less accurate. But it is a slow, predictable process. Normal clock/battery systems easily last years before noticeable degredation occurs.

In fact, one of my machines is now losing time at a rate of about 40 seconds per week. A couple of months will go by and I'll notice I'm a few minutes off. That machine is four years old though, and regularly spends days turned off.

A very low battery may give spurious results, but that is very unlikey in the first place, and nearly impossible for a system that is maintained.

Please take any non-sense about batteries and wildly inaccurate dates with a very large grain of salt, and please feel free to contact me if you have questions.

I'm actually more of a software guy, but I'm happy to help, schedule permitting.

"Machine number 5875 in Precinct 1077 showed two different "unknown errors," listing them as "unknown error 219" and "unknown error 220." "

They may not know the cause, but the programmers know exactly where the problem occurred and almost certainly what was being attempted.

The reason is, they actually had to write "219" or "220" (or set a variable) explicitly. Despite the fact that they may not know the cause, there is no excuse for not reporting the circumstances.

"auto-act election info bad and "auto-act write ver fail" messages also show up in the logs, with the "election info bad" message appearing hundreds of times."

Election info bad sounds quite a bit like a problem with the setup. So when the computer is started up, it is told (by eeprom?) what the parameters of the election are. One of those parameters would have to be the polling date. I would hope that the system would refuse to do live polling if the parameters did not match appropriately, i.e. the current date is not the polling date.

I wonder if these don't match closely with the bad dates. At the very least, the system should log an error for any vote that is done on a date that is inconsistent with the poll parameters.

"auto-act write ver fail" is quite a bit less informative. However any error that may be seen by the customer (the county) should be documented.

Do you have a description of the error codes?

Actually not even the programmers themselves necessarily know where the "unknown" errors happened. They may be using those codes in more than one place, and they aren't necessarily hard-coded. This is what comes of having no customer (i.e., State) verification and validation of the machines or the source code, no software version control, no customer acceptance test procedures, etc. We're being asked to select these machines the same way we'd buy a new laptop or MP3 player.

Regarding poll tape 305, the Orlando Sun-Sentinel smoked a quote out of former Volusia County Supervisor of Elections Deanie Lowe:

From Sun-Sentinel, Feb. 24 2006, by Kevin Connolly:
Elections officials said the tape is printed with the correct date. The perceived 18,000-year discrepancy apparently is a reference to a series of digits that appears to be a date: 01/24/104. Someone at Black Box Voting apparently thought that meant Jan. 24, 20,104.

Lowe said the series of numbers in question was not a date. She wasn't sure exactly what the numbers indicated and suggested they could have been a computer code or a staff error.

Which leaves us with two possibilities:

- This former elections official has absolutely no clue how to read a poll tape or what information it contains

or

- She's lying.



Yikes! That is the date for Jan 24, 2004, but on a non-Y2K compliant application!

Somewhere in the code to write the tape is a line which says "get me the year and prepend '19' to it". Unfortunately the underlying date library is returning 3 digit numbers for the the year (and has been for almost 5 years at the time of the election).

Wonderful... my toaster has better Y2K remediation than my voting machine.

Speaking as somebody who did tech support and LAN administration for about 15 years, I can tell you that the pattern of date discrepancies does NOT look like "pure machine glitch" (hardware issues) and also doesn't look like the possible result of a bug.

The way they're mostly "clustered" in a limited date period of Oct. 13th - 20th of the correct year says to me "human intervension". It's not "randomized" the way most computer glitches are.

This is admittedly more a matter of "feel" than computer science but any geek will tell you the same.

Next: by way of Jeremiah Akin, Riverside County elections staff have said that the PS/2 keyboard port on the back is used for, among other things, "to change the date and time".

We know from the logs on the serial numbers of the machines affected that the dates were accurate during the "logic and accuracy test" typically performed up to a month before the election.

OK, let's assume the Riverside folks are right about the keyboard.

Standard practice is to do the L&A then shut the machine down and DON'T mess with it until election morning. This is basic across all voting machines and has been since the lever days going back to the 19th century.

If the date was messed with by a human with a keyboard between the time of the L&A and the time of the election, well...what the holy hell were they doing? Once the keyboard is in you can tweak the boot order in ROM, loading new code off of new media, or maybe individual programs. (We know little about the OS on these but the boot ROM system is basically same as any laptop.)

In other words, it's not that radical a guess to say that somebody was up to something no good and the date weirdness was just a side effect.

If they were doing a very serious hack involving loading new code, it's possible that what they did hosed the date and they needed to reset it by hand...and in 40 or so cases they forgot that part?

Under this hypothesis the range of dates from the 13th to the 20th is maybe the time the "midnight black hat crew" spent touching each machine. The number of days involved is about right.

Again, this is speculation. We need the manuals on these things to understand the date function in detail. And the process by which new code or data is loaded, probably via PCMCIA card.

We need to replicate ALL these various errors and figure out how they happened, what could cause them and whether or not they're "pointers" to deeper problems, whether that's just "bad gear" or somebody actually loading a vote-shaving routine of some sort.

I suppose this is possible but I think you are a coder (as I am) and I think you'd agree that these would be extraordinarily bad practices. Especially 'non hardcoded' error codes which would almost gaurantee an inability to detect the location of a bug, unless the bug 'tracking' part was itself bug free.


Jim said

To me they suggest either tampering, or a rapid degredation of battery, resulting in a slowing of the crystal used to generate clock ticks. However, this is the type of behaviour you would expect in the last hours of a battery's life, and there is no reason a normal calculator battery can't run a crystal and a counter for years.

I did not see where anyone pointed it out, but 01/24/104 is indeed a date, albeit an incorrectly formatted one. If you read the manual for the function localtime (http://bama.ua.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?localtime+3C), you will see that the field corresponding to the year is the number of years since 1900. Thus, 104 corresponds to 2004. The fact that the date is incorrect is quite scary, as it is indicative of the carelessness of the voting program's authors. I wish I could see the code so I could tear it apart.

To all -- thanks very much for your comments. Regarding the Y2k error, that seems like a good possibility, as is noted on the main page where we have all those tapes and note that anomaly.

We have not seen any reference to Y2k issues in the Diebold memos, which go back to 1999, nor have I heard they were dealing with any Y2K issues from elections people who've had the machines since the early or mid-90s.

That's the whole point of examining these issues -- as Jim pointed out, one procedure, at least for the frequently occuring errors, is to do testing to replicate the error.

What they actually do, of course, is ask the VENDOR what it is. And in Palm Beach County, the vendor is busy trying to make a sale.

By the way, one of the people who was installed as a non-voting member of the technical panel in Palm Beach is our old friend, Phil Foster. Anyone want to depend on his explanation of these error messages? (He was indicted in a messy bribery case, see http://www.blackboxvoting.org/bbv_chapter-8.pdf - Chapter 8 of the Black Box Voting book.

As a programmer who has coded error reporting systems, I think I know EXACTLY what the issue is with 'Unknown Error 219'... error detection and alerting is a two step process... first layer finds the error and returns an identifying test number. Second layer presents the alert by using the test number as an index into a list of descriptive strings. When the error number is larger than the available list, 'Unknown Error XXX' is reported. This could just be another example of bad coding practices, where the list is not up to date with the testing. Would be hard to prove the list was edited for political reasons. Finding a newer version of the string tables in an updated version of the code may reveal what a '219' and a '220' is... could be a 'version control issue' as Sharon mentioned.

Jim, I don't completely agree with your observation that computer glitches are 'randomized'... computer HARDWARE with intermittant performance has 'randomized glitches'... but bad software tends to be deterministic glitches. If it wasn't, we wouldn't be successful at debugging flakey code!

John's issue of "a series of digits that appears to be a date: 01/24/104." is just the tip of the iceberg... it's noted that this is a problem with a BIOS that's not Y2K compliant... but is REALLY showing that this system would also be vulnerable to BIOS level security attacks. If the BIOS of EVERY machine hasn't been tested for Y2K compliance, then the testing procedure is obviously deeply insufficient.

Catherine's comment about long lines is much more relevant than it first appears... note that times greater than 10:00 PM push their timestamp to the next line... is this just an anomoly of thier presentation on this site, or is has the string got an extra <cr-lf> inserted where there used to be a space? The latter would be evidence of poor editing procedure when hacking the results... similar evidence is in the extra blank lines in the Volusia tapes.

hehehe... kinda insulting to the REAL pros that the elections are being hacked by COMPUTER ILLITERATE AMATEURS who leave all sorts of blatent trails, even though supported in their efforts by systems designed to make audit tracing impossible. hehehe The egomaniacal 'super programmer" who designed this CAF (Computer Assisted Fraud) system wasn't near as good as he thought, fortuneately!

(From BBV): The long lines were caused by a formatting anomaly, not the user's fault, and it's now corrected. That had to do with the way these forums work, and the long lines with the log entries happen to be not significant.

I agree with most of what Robert said except the date issue. I don't believe that this is a Y2K compliance or BIOS issue. The real problem is the quality of the programmers. The system functions that return the time give years that are offset by 1900. Therefore, the year 2000 is represented by 100, 2004 by 104, and so forth. The programmers could have corrected this value easily but were probably unaware of it. Likewise, the programmers probably failed to realize that the month is offset by 1. The date in question, 01/24/104, likely corresponds to 02/24/2004. There is nothing truly wrong about the dates except that they are misleading--providing an incorrect date, IMHO, is much worse than omitting dates entirely.

Whether the machines are vulnerable to a BIOS-level attack is another issue entirely, although such an attack would probably not take the form of a Y2K-like bug. In most cases, software-level security measures are effective only if the hardware cannot be tampered with. Of course, there are mechanisms to detect this kind of tampering, but then there are mechanisms to avoid the detection, and so on.

If this were a battery issue, we should be able to open up these machines now and verify that they indeed have a dead battery. Additionally, the system date on these machines would be even further off than they were before. This should be VERY easy to verify... that is, if you can get access to the machines in question.

In the past, when I have run across a bad battery in a computer (and I have run across my share), the result is a date in 1970 (depending on how long the computer has been running). This is a result of the date getting reset to 0 every time the computer is turned on. I have never seen a "slow" date due to a low battery. I would assume that almost all modern bios have voltage regulators built in. Thus the power would remain constant to the time keeping crystal until the voltage went below a certain level, then there would be no power to the crystal.

That's quite likely true, although the regulator could just be ensuring that you don't over power the crystal rather than preventing undervoltages (which are not likely to be dangerous).

What then is the hardware cause for a bios date being slow? It happens on my PCs all the time and replacing the batteries does appear to fix it. Not being an ass here (at least not

In 1999 (98?) MS provided an alternate 'get date' routine that returned a 'long' year rather than a 'short' offset from 1970 (founding date of MS), to fix the Y2K issue... the old routine remains to provide 'legacy' compatibility. If it says 20104 then it's stale code using the obsolete routine.

Peter notes, correctly, that any such BIOS based attack probably wouldn't take the form of a date/time function anomoly (could, would be tricky)... but my point was that the BIOS isn't checked even to THIS level, then anything else is possible... the BIOS code isn't being checked at all. IMHO, any OpenSouce system would have to have NO BIOS, with all I/O routines visible in the OpenSource... and running on a hardware protected processor's intrinsic ROM memory!

Voltage regulation is a hardware function unrelated to the BIOS (Basic Input Output Operating System) or the EBIOS (the 32 bit functions that replace the BIOS for operation of a 32 bit OS on a 32 bit Processor) which replaces the BIOS when the processor switches from 16 bit to 32 bit mode. (All Intel processors start up as if they were 8086s, then get smarter). Low voltage of the clock chip can cause it to run slow... the PC design essentially acknowledges this, because the system clock switches to 'Mains' power ASAP. You'll only 'lose time' Asterix when the system is switched off.

Jimbo makes the same point that we have all been making: voting is such a simple process that it is ridiculous that a company could screw it up this much. Granted, a lot of the functionality in these machines is quite complex, but one would think that the primary functionality--the recording of votes--would take precedence over secondary features when it comes to testing and verification. If the machine records timestamps in a log file that are not human-readable, why even have a log file?

However, one must question the government's role in all of this. The government presumably has standards and some kind of QA process for these machines, and yet the quality is so poor. If there is really anyone to blame, it is the government for accepting such an awful product. It just makes me sick that my tax dollars pay for such junk. This kind of thing would not stand in the corporate world. If I delivered a product that was supposed to be production-quality and it had these "unknown error" messages in it, I would be out of work.

Being that my current job has me in a split dev/test role, the debate surrounding these voting machines has been very interesting (not to mention scary) for me. I remember reading/seeing something somewhere (maybe even here on bbvoting) a while back about the amount of QA oversight on these machines, and that it was virtually nil. This scares the hell out of me. I work on a product that's about as far removed from the government as can be (a rather well-known IDE... that isn't Eclipse, I'll leave you to figure it out), and we have literally thousands of people staffing our QA teams. The fact that a system for choosing the president, among others, could have been been so insufficiently tested (whether intentionally or due to plain incompetence) just blows my mind.

Hmmm... noting that the logs were only occuring in some areas, I think we've drawn upon the following hypotheses:

1) That all machines were running Windows 98 or earlier, and some failed to be patched for Y2k;

2) That some machines were running earlier versions of the voting software than others (which may indicate tampering with machines to take software back to easily hackable versions that didn't know when to start and stop voting. This would explain 'unknown errors' and 'auto-act election info bad');

3) That someone was fiddling with the dates. I am assuming here that should have caused a 'election info bad' report if the date was set wrong. But what if hypothesis 2 is correct?

What about the option that the dates are accurate (except for the Y2K issue), and they indicate the times when someone accessed the machine in question to tamper with it?

You can argue all day about why the dates may be displaying as they are, but if the date is set by a keyboard, not tied to a central time reference, anyone could have set (or not set) the date to this strange value. The method and obviously poorly written program does not lend credibility to the machines.

If the bogus dates are consistent on a machine (no normal dates intermixed with the bogus ones), that does not imply any hacking was done. As long as the time/dates increment for each log entry and only specify a single day, they could have come from a legitimate election with just the date set wrong.

The log I reviewed had a lot of 10/15 dates followed by 11/2 dates on many machines as if someone set the date correctly after voting had started. If the dates had gone back to an earlier date and then back to 11/2 that would have indicated possible tampering. I sorted the event log by pct#, serial number, protective counter to get what should be a log sequence order. (not sure what order they were before)

While this is an incredible display of bad product design and programming, I don't believe the dates I looked at indicate tampering. (yet)

I think there are other anomalies that scream foul play much louder than the details of the dates.

Jimbo Dinkis, Asterix, Griffith -- Please edit your real first and last name into your profile, as we have a "real names" policy here. This encourages accountability and raises the quality level of the posts.

I need to clarify something

Just to make sure there is no mixing of apples and oranges.

Volusia County documents are DIEBOLD.
Palm Beach County documents are SEQUOIA.

Thus, the technical issues from one can't necessarily be extrapolated over to the other.

Another point of interest

Palm Beach County could not have known that these logs would ever be examined by any member of the public. No one had been requesting them before.

In speaking with the Palm Beach County citizens this week, I learned that "something happened" around 11 p.m. or so on election night Nov. 2, 2004, and Theresa LePore was "freaked out" and appeared extremely stressed. She was reportedly screaming at people by this point.

I got to thinking -- was there anything that happened around 11 p.m. in Palm Beach County?

One thing happened that I'm aware of. The Black Box Voting public records request for these logs arrived simultaneously by e-mail and fax right around 11 p.m. Eastern time, election night, Nov. 2 2004 in Palm Beach County.

For Mike Myre:

quote:

You are seeing a 10/15 Logic & Accuracy test and Nov. 2 votes.

The anomalous tapes had no votes on Nov. 2.

Also, nothing is supposed to be changed -- and that would include setting the date -- after the L&A test. We can confirm that the problems took place after the L&A test.

I actually do consider myself an expert, having developed system- and mission-critical systems for jet engine controls, nuclear power plant controls, and numerous data communications systems for over 30 years. I gather from the content of their postings that several other people here are also professional software engineers.

Yes, all the types of errors we are speculating about indicate extraordinarily bad programming practices. That was my whole point. No one has any oversight into these companies and their so-called practices. They guard their code and internal processes on the grounds of "proprietary company information." I say Hogwash! These systems are developed for "customers" that are state governments. They are paid for with taxpayer dollars. They should be subjected to the same scrutiny as the engine control and power plant control software that I have worked on.

Here are just a couple of examples from the problems we already knew about before this latest news from Palm Beach. In Ohio people complained that when they used the touch-screen machines, the wrong candidates were selected. This tells me that the touch-screen had not been calibrated. A system that hasn't been calibrated yet should start up in the calibration screen and stay there until the calibration has been completed. No ifs, ands, or buts. Another problem reported from Ohio had to do with a negative vote count. That tells me that a 16-bit signed variable was used that should have been a 32-bit variable. The vulnerability to tampering has already been demonstrated by direct experiment.

Obviously there was (1) no internal sanity checking in the software and (2) no code inspection and (3) insufficient testing before and after delivery of the systems. I could go on, but you get my drift. This is either deliberate, in order to "fix" elections, or incompetent. I don't like either possibility, but maybe I can do something about the second one, which is to continue to speak up.

Jo Anne, that's another important aspect of the problems reported in 2004. If true, they do seem to point to deliberate tampering. Immediately after the 11/04 election, there was a preliminary statistical analysis of the Florida election that seemed to show that precincts with a certain type of e-voting machine always skewed in the same direction, often counter to that precinct's traditional voting patterns. After there had been time to review it, I recall that there were some problems with the analysis. I don't recall who wrote it, and I haven't seen anything about it since.

In Ohio, the voting results often did not track with the exit polls. Exit polls haven't been wrong in, what? over 50 years? Soemthing definitely went wrong in 2004, and it had everything to do with e-voting, in my personal opinion. Proving it is another matter. As long as the machines are not subject to any scrutiny...

We need to take a step back and realize there is no shortage of smoking guns here. The problem is getting one to resonate in the public's short attention span. You think an EEPROM error is going to resonate with a Home Depot employee? We have plenty of fuel for an all our public relations effort on election fraud but the errors need be concise and easy to describe. Incorrect Dates in logs would play well. The real problem with all of this is that you no longer need to be bright to hack these machines. We know there are folks who kill clinic doctors and believe it "God's will to put pro-life candidates in office." I think we can rule out al Qaeda although Osama may be happy with the US bankrupting itself. Let's not overthink or over-intellectualize what is going on here. Simplify. Bullet Points. Academia Bad. Common Sense good. It's the bullets stupid.

Let's work on our FOXNEWS crawl headlines: 1) Voting machines show traces of very early voting!; 2) Voting machines not Y2K compliant!; 3) Voting machines proven to be slower and less accurate than lever machines!; 4) Thousands of Votes switched from Kerry to Bush; 5) Another Voting Machine executive arrested; 6) Cincinatti Bell CEO is former Diebold exec; given remote access to voting machines; 7) Vote manipulators arrested; discuss how they did it.

The public does not know the difference between Central Tabulators and DREs. Let's call them all voting machines. No need to differentiate except in technical committee. These hackers revel in the difficulty has describing what was done; they pick techniques that are hard to easily explain. Don't fall into their trap. We here know rebooting means software/hardware issues but the public doesn't care if they feel most machines got it right. They need to know that just a few battleground counties in Ohio can turn one state and that is all it takes. Hardly a vast conspiracy.

This is very worrisome. Having looked into the way the electronic voting machines were designed, with little care to who programs them or how it is done, I knew that the election departments would not want these machines to be audited. It is just mind-boggling that these were programmed by people without security clearances, when it is just as important of a part of our democracy as defense.

Besides the suspicious dates, there seem to be glitches. A lot of them. In something as simple as this, glitches should not be an every day occurence. If the management and programming were sound, it would be as reliable as the computers inside an airplane.

I too think that when talking to people who are not knowledgeable about computers, we should use easy-to-understand things like "incorrect dates" and not esoteric things like "EEPROM failures".

There is some great input here.

If these kinds of reviews can be elecited just by examining the tapes, one can only imagine what a full blown examination of the code would produce.

Based on the reviews of the tapes, it would be criminal let alone a complete refusal to do due diligence, to not demand complete code review.

Voting is mission critical for democracy.

There is no excuse for not examining the code that purports to count our votes.

While the date issue is important, it is also important to put it in context, so that date issues are not just treated as a "glitch"- either human or machine.

Maybe a list of follow up questions for the media when they get the same old, pat non-answers to questions?

They've been getting those answers long enough now, with no let up in the problems that prompt the questions, that it's time to really dig.

Linda,

Agree completely. The media response so far is an attempt to trivialize "wrong dates", implying, what's the big deal with some dates being wrong. There needs to be a more direct line between the wrong dates and the possible implications, in such a way that the inconsistencies cannot be trivialized.

Catherine, Linda, John, Bev,

PLEASE OH PLEASE let me be on the testing/code inspection team, if that ever comes to pass. I don't think it will--those companies know that their code couldn't withstand any kind of close scrutiny, in their rush to get to market in time for the 2004 election. But it COULD happen, if we keep pounding on our elected representatives.

A few days ago, in response to the news from California, I posted a copy of the letter I sent to my representatives several months ago. I will be updating it soon and sending it out again. You can read it here: http://exsoftware.blogspot.com/2006/02/its-not-who-votes-that-counts-its-who.htm l

I just found out that AP is now reporting this story, but get this:

"Palm Beach County election officials said the BlackBoxVoting.com findings are flawed, and they blamed most of the errors on voters not following proper procedures."

This sounds an awful lot like the butterfly-ballot fiasco of 2000, blaming the users for the bad design and implementation of the machines. Do you know what would have happened if I'd tried that excuse--"User error"--on my customers when I was a software developer? I would have gotten walked out the door that very day, but not before having my head handed to me. You're supposed to design the damned machines so that the user CANNOT make an error. This is not rocket science. We've known how to do this for several decades now.

Great letter. Thanks for the link.

Question for you (Sharon): Your letter makes it clear that in your professional experience testing and inspecting software for many kinds of mission critical applications, there was never any question of trade secrets being used to prevent customers from inspecting either software code or other equipment. Did any of this software ever rely on a proprietary foundation such as MS Windows or other 3rd party proprietary code? If so, how did this affect your inspection/testing protocol? Was the customer allowed access to the other 3rd party code with appropriate NDA agreements? Or was such access denied?

Catherine, the power plant controls and flight controls systems were not based on Windows or any off-the-shelf O/S kernel, although the power plant controls did incorporate a commercial graphics package for drawing buttons and other objects for a touch screen panel. With the proper NDAs in place, yes, the customer had access to the commercial software as well. We had to customize the commercial software to run on our hardware, so the modules that we changed were subjected to the same testing that we would do on any software that was developed internally.

I also worked on equipment that made precise measurements of the mirrors for the Chandra X-Ray telescope. The station software was Windows-based (well, DOS, really) and was not a deliverable, and as far as I know the customer did not perform a line by line code inspection, but they were continuously auditing our test procedures and test results through the office of DCMA (Defense Contract Management Agency), (as were the other projects I mentioned). That's how the voting machine contracts should have been handled as well, in my opinion.

Using Windows as the platform may have been the first mistake, due to its security problems. A properly-written RFQ from a state government that was looking to purchase machines would include clear and unambiguous security requirements. Sure, Windows might get you to market faster--in theory. I can see how using Windows might complicate code inspection, but I can write a Windows application without seeing the Windows source code, and still allow my code to be inspected. But even if that were really a valid issue, that just means that the system-level testing must be very thorough, to make up for the lack of code inspection and module-level testing. All the evidence suggests that Diebold et al did none of this testing. And even if they did, we don't know if the software they delivered, or the software that was in place on election day, was the software they tested. The state agencies that purchased the machines bear some of the responsibility, too, and of course they have been hampered in doing that by HAVA.

p.s. Regarding the claims of "user error," I had some more thoughts about that this morning. The last time an ATM fined my checking account $10 for putting in my card upside-down was NEVER. But this is what the vendors and state election supervisors seem to be condoning.

Viewing this in the most favorable light possible, this is incompetence on their part, and breach of contract on the part of the vendors. If the machines that the vendors delivered do happen to meet the requirements of HAVA and of the States' various RFQs, then HAVA and the States' acquisition processes are broken and need to be fixed. This is a technical, legal, and managerial issue. It's not necessary that this become a partisan issue, although that is probably inevitable, given the political climate.

A vendor can claim that a problem is the result of user error only if the vendor never received a set of well-defined user requirements. However, Palm Beach County was the customer, so it was their responsibility to ensure that the user requirements were well-defined and were met. If the requirements were not met, then the machines should not have been purchased.

Requiring users of a computer system to follow a procedure is not likely to work unless that procedure is enforced by the system. This is why procedures are enforced by so-called Wizards. Putting a lot of buttons on a screen says to the user, "You are allowed to push these buttons as you see fit--there is no procedure here."

Furthermore, verification of user input is a given in any computer system. They teach this in the first computer science class you ever take. How many web sites allow you to submit a blank form? Have you ever accidentally typed your email address where your phone number was supposed to go? If so, you had to change the information before it was accepted, right?

Even with Palm Beach County's liberal definition of user error, I fail to see how any of the discrepancies in the results could have come from user error. A more likely explanation is that Palm Beach County representatives did not evaluate the voting machines thoroughly because they were under pressure to become HAVA-compliant, and now they are passing the buck. Perhaps they should change the name of the Act from HAVA (Help Americans Vote Act) to BANK (Blame Americans for Not Knowing). I doubt the voting system vendors would hesitate to say their machines are BANK-compliant. They've got our tax dollars, after all.

I'm sure a lot of you are more familiar with voting standards than I am. The only Florida Voting System Standards document I could find was Form DS-DE 101 (pdf), which became effective after 2004. Can anyone point me at the standards that were effective in 2004? I want to see how much I should punish myself for not knowing how to vote properly.

Update:

A brief report has now been filed with the Palm Beach County branch of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Whether the information makes its way to the top of their priority list is an open question, but we will provide additional information if the preliminary report generates any interest.

The Palm Beach Coalition for Election Reform has made contact with attorneys, and a similar report was provided to them.

I will make more details public as soon as I can. Unfortunately, we have a project which will take all of the Black Box Voting investigators out of state this week, and it competes with the Palm Beach project. Hopefully we can be productive on both fronts at once.

More details on the date and time problem

We found approximately four dozen incorrect poll tapes/log reports, with votes showing up as early as Jan. 14, 2000 and as late as Nov. 2, 2010.

There were hundreds of "main battery not charging" error messages, which would be the lead suspect for natural causes of incorrect dates -- except that the data does not correlate consistently on this. The "main battery not charging" messages match both correct and incorrect dates, and incorrect dates aren't necessarily accompanied by either battery or time reset messages. For added fun, some of the records needed to look into this properly were not provided as required.

Here's what we've found so far:

- Many of the incorrect dates are accompanied by one or more "main battery not charging" messages. This would tend to indicate it is a battery problem -- although if so, Palm Beach County decided to use machines knowing they had battery problems.

- Also -- many of the correct dates are accompanied by one or more "main battery not charging" messages.

- Some of the incorrect dates are accompanied by log messages that indicate the date and time was manually set immediately before the date and time "froze."

- And also: There are also incorrect dates and times that are NOT accompanied by either battery problem messages or time reset log entries.

- Some of the log data was ommitted from the records production for some of the poll tapes with incorrect dates and times, and therefore we cannot examine whether there were battery or time reset log entries for these.

We were particularly dismayed to see that important records were not produced, despite a court-approved settlement in which Palm Beach County agreed to produce them.

Clear as mud?

A brief reminder: It is up to the supervisor of elections to prove the results are correct.

Bev, the "main" battery is typically a 12 volt lead acid 'gell-cell' battery that is meant to run the unit during an AC power failure and it has nothing to do with the internal 'clock' in the machine. If you check out the consumable items list for any machine you should find two batteries listed, a 12 Volt "main" battery and a 3 volt "backup" battery. It's the 3 volt backup battery that keeps the BIOS settings intact and the clock running in most computers. A typical motherboard "backup" battery is usually good for 10 years or more before needing replacement. If there's any way to check out the machine serial numbers against purchase orders for them, you might be able to correlate the machine's age against the likelihood of a bad backup battery.

I've seen a few posts disputing whether a low backup battery can result in a slow clock that will yield the wrong time and date. The truth is, a low battery can indeed slow the clock down, but I know of no technical explanation of how dates in the future could get set, other than someone deliberately setting them.

The system I'm posting on right now is just over 10 years old (Pentium 1, 266 Mhz) and it has a low backup battery that causes the clock to lose several minutes a day. It's lost just over 50 minutes since I last reset it a couple of days ago.

As an experiment, I've just re-set it to within 1 second of UCT and will check it in exactly 24 hours to see how much time it loses every day.

"We were particularly dismayed to see that important records were not produced, despite a court-approved settlement in which Palm Beach County agreed to produce them."

Any hope of going back to the court and getting an enforcement order and/or a refund of the $7000.00?

Ally-ally-in-free, here's a time problem with a battery problem attached. Benign or not, got explanations that hold water?

By the way, being a layperson, I'd look at the particular example below and say "the battery caused it." There are many examples like this, and some that are not like this one. By the way, the Palm Beach County machines in question were two years old in 2004, unless they bought something used without telling the taxpayers.

blue=L&A test
red=battery problem

What I see here tells me that the "Main Battery Not Charging" warning message seems to have no direct effect on the function of the clock. The time stamps seem consistent both prior and subsequent to the warning being issued. It might not be even be a "warning" per se, it is conceivable that the system checks the battery level and determines if it needs charging before switching the charger on. The use of the language "Main Battery Not Charging" rather than the more traditional "Charge Failure" or "Battery Failure" leads me to believe that this might be an 'event' notification. These would crop up occasionally as batteries reached their peak charge and the charger switches off.

What I find even more interesting is that it seems in the second tape, there was no apparent change made to the time on the clock when the "Set Time and Date" message popped up. They also seem to have done the L&A test in the hours just before the polls opened, if we're to believe that this is a real poll tape generated on election day.

The little 'conspiracy theorist' in me says that they also might have been falsifying documentation for the machines, and forgot to set the time and date ahead to election day before they spent the next 12 hours faking the votes. If I were the FBI I'd be getting a warrant to seize the equipment for a forensic examination of their internal memories and clocks. The time and date on them right now would tell us a lot about what we're really looking at.

For voting machines in general, and Diebold TSx machines in particular, what are the reasons a hacker might want to have the dates and/or times printed on the VVPAT and on the logs set ahead of the actual date and/or time? Are there a different set of advantages to the hacker, if the printed dates and/or times are set behind the actual date and/or time?

Jocelynn, that is a GREAT question. Whenever we see unusual events in these logs we need to ask "cui bono".

Joycelynn, I think you misunderstood my thinking on this. A 'hacker' wouldn't necessarily want to alter the clock one way or the other and I'm not at all sure that the date and time are printed on the VVPAT.

What I'm trying to point out is that if an election official wanted to use the machines to create an alternate set of poll tapes, they would have to reset the date and time back to when the earliest event was supposed to have been recorded. In this case, the L&A test. After re-running the L&A test, you would want to re-set the time and date to reflect the actual start of the election.

If you look at the time stamp on the first tape, the L&A test begins on 10/12/2004 at 4:40:34 PM and ends at 5:48:52 PM, about 1 hour and 8 minutes later.

The next logged event is the machine startup for the election. The election starts on 10/16/2004 at 12:52:41 PM, three and a half days after the L&A test. The first ballot was cast at 1:36:30 PM (Election - Cast Vote) and the last event recorded was on 10/17/2004 at 1:29:17 AM, (Election Results Report) just under 12 hours later.

If the election was held on November 2 then the L&A test had to have been conducted 3 1/2 days earlier on October 30th. There must be some public records of when these machines were in fact subjected to their L&A tests that we can check against. The tests are supposed to be public and I'm sure someone must have witnessed them.

Now look at the second tape. The L&A test starts on
10/14/2004 at 4:25:40 PM, and ends on 10/14/2004 5:16:06 PM, about 50 minutes later. The next recorded event occurs six seconds later at 5:16:12 PM, AC Power Status check as the unit is switched into 'election' mode. Forty six minutes later at 6:02:08 PM the first vote is cast. (Election - Cast Vote) The log ends on 10/15/2004 at 5:59:58 AM with the Election Results Report roughly 12 hours after the first vote was cast.

I highly doubt that they ran the L&A test for this machine early on the morning of November 2, less than an hour before opening the polls.

If these precincts opened and closed on time, we can adjust for the time and dates to within a couple of minutes to determine when things really happened.

It occurred to me that if I was to set up a group of machines to produce a new set of documents to cover for bogus returns hacked into the tabulator, I could do it, but if the machines are all set to the correct time it would leave 'tell tale' signs that I had faked the results. If you placed the reports side by side in the same order as the machines, you could detect a pattern of when the votes were cast on each machine. You can mask that pattern by setting the clocks off from one another in some random fashion so it's not as obvious. You can un-mask the pattern by aligning two known points in time, the beginning and end of the election, with those actions as represented on the poll tapes.

So here's a question for you.
Are the events noted on the logs in purely sequential order as they occurred, or are they in sorted order by the date and time stamp?

If the latter, can the resetting of the clock be used to insert events into the log at an earlier time?

Below is one of my personal favorites.

Pat, in view of the fact that not a single poll tape was signed by a poll worker, and because they took nine months to get the information to us, we're intrigued by the hypothesis you were noodling around at -- that after the fact, someone may have been going back to just after the L&A test to insert data or program logic. In that case, they'd have to remember to adjust the clock. These logs would potentially be evidence that they forgot to correct the clock or, in the case of this particular one, made a typo or an error when doing a clock "correction."

When we say that the date problems cannot be matched up to battery issues, the log for machine #8101, Precinct 4084, is of interest:

blue=L&A test
red=date changes

Without knowing what the textual part of the log entries means in more detail, and more about the operation of the machines in general, I can't even begin to speculate on what the discrepancies mean. Can the machines only be configured to record one and only one election per year? Probably not. Is the test mode substantially different from the election mode? If so, how do we know that the test/simulation mode is a valid test in that it's exercising actual "election day" code?

The only thing that I can conclude from looking at these tapes is that they show discrepancies that--had the proper procedures been in place and enforced--should have invalidated any and all results from those machines. In other words, the results from these machines should have been thrown out.

I just took a quick look at one spreadsheet (#3). The vast majority of machines had exactly 15 votes cast. Which, to me, makes it seem like there must have been testing going on that triggered the vote casts before 11/2. In fact, when there are more than 15 votes cast, there is another round cast the following day. This again seems to point to a testing of the machines (and not clearing the data).

Fifteen votes is not much of a test, is it? I sure would like to see the test plans, test procedures, and the test reports showing 'actual' v. 'expected' results.

How do we know that these machines were the ones used in the election? Could these be tapes from machines that were tested in October, but never used? (we always need to question if we are looking at what we think we are).

John Howard asks: "Are the events noted on the logs in purely sequential order as they occurred, or are they in sorted order by the date and time stamp?"

This is important in knowing you are seeing the log files in the right order. You can't just sort them by date and then try and figure out what is going on, you need to see them in original log order. I assume the "Protective_Counter" number is supposed to be a continuously incrementing counter to help assure the log file is not resorted and I don't see them in these results.

As for why the date would be set when it didn't need to: They could have been setting the date on all machines, or (from the conspiracy department) setting the dates to a certain value could be a back door into the software (if special date is entered, start reversing votes. normal date entered, vote normally). If I wanted a switch to enable special code, this is one of the ways I would do it.

Okay stepping in from the dummy department. First let me say that as always I am totally blown away by how much expertise and time people put into finding the real meaning of these obscure computer codes. I have some basic points to make.
We all agree that the real ballot must be the paper ballot. So proving that there are more and more ways that the programmers are incompetent and probably ill intentioned does not help us much.
I have some simple questions. Do any of these errors mean that even one vote may not have registered correctly? (I don't right now want to get into possible fraud.) If say the memory card ejection error means that that voters vote was not counted then we have a different approach.
I read the opinion for Lynn Landes case and if was dismissed because she could not show that she personally had been harmed. It we know that some votes are not counted and we have a voter from the Palm beach county who wants to vote again, we have a case. She has been harmed her interest in knowing her vote is counted has been removed. Her interest in knowing that in future elections her vote will be counted is gone. She is being denied the vote without due process. This keeps us from getting dismissed and get us to discovery.

My simple question do any of these errors mean that votes were not counted?

KWilson:
The 15-vote sequences are L&A tests. The others are election day votes or votes on the wrong date that were recorded as election day votes.

Sort the spreadsheet by machine number, date and time. This will make it easier to interpret the data.

Mike Myhre: These tapes were represented to us by Palm Beach County as the tapes from Election Day. The totals for these tapes (except for the 15-vote L&A totals) do show up in the election results.

The protective count should increment by one each time a vote is counted.

The logs printed in these posts are sorted by date and time and, as you correctly point out, will sometimes reverse the way events are shown if they occur at a simulataneous time.

Review the Excel files, and on my to-do list, I will post the original cumbersome pdf files we received from Palm Beach County.

We are out in the field this week and have very limited time (and very limited access to communications, either cell phone or Internet.) Torture to be sure.

Please be patient, and we'll continue to upload the information as we get a chance. We will need to get back to Seattle and pull the original big mamma files so you folks can examine them.

For Mike Myre:

quote:

for why the date would be set when it didn't need to: They could have been setting the date on all machines, or (from the conspiracy department) setting the dates to a certain value could be a back door into the software (if special date is entered, start reversing votes. normal date entered, vote normally). If I wanted a switch to enable special code, this one of the ways I would do it.



The logs show that they were NOT setting the dates on most machines.

The indication is that the log entry that says date/time set is something that is automated, because it occurs simultaneously with another log entry. That would be consistent with uploading a patch or new software that resets the date automatically.

The timing of the battery not charging messages seem to indicate that the machines are not completely turned off -- in other words, they may be remaining alive after seemingly being turned off. This is not good for a voting system, because if this is the case, it becomes a question what functions the machine can do while it's pretending to be asleep. For example, can it receive communications?

Any chance of getting a voting machine of the same type to play with? It would answer a lot of questions as to how they behave and what would cause the strange log entries.
Seems like there would be a surplus with some counties going with mail-in.

Non-technical comment: Thank you Bev and the BBV team for your persistence in getting these records (and for spending the $$$!)and the detailed, careful analysis. To have "gotten the goods" this way on Sequoia is, to my way of thinking, particularly powerful, since you've already decimated Diebold...NO ONE else is doing work like this! If we ever prevail in the return of paper ballots, hand-counted, it will be in large part due to your tireless efforts. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Is anyone attending the hearing on Sequoia and ES&S in California today at the Secretary of State's office?

I am wondering if the turnout will be the same as the Diebold hearing.

Bev,

I was coming to the same conclusion as Chaim. I've read the first few chapters of your book, and I am impressed as hell by what you have taken it upon yourself to do. I'm just a newcomer here, and I'm sure that you have other things going on in the background that we don't know about. But here's my question anyway. There are -so- many confirmed cases of "machines gone bad," in so many different ways, and so many companies involved, that I'm wondering why keep trying to put out fires? HAVA has accomplished nothing but to line the pockets of privately held companies, while giving us nothing in return. Any machine that displays an anomaly before an election should not be used; any machine that displays any anomaly post-election should have its "results" discarded. This should be part of the standard operating procedures used by any sane election board. It's time for a moratorium on electronic voting. HAVA needs to be repealed.

Finally, some good news. New Mexico has passed legislation requiring a stae-wide system of voter-verifiable paper ballots.

Gov. Richardson's bill will solve nothing without a mandatory and statistically sound auditing scheme. Unless random and statistically robust audits are conducted statewide, the optical scanners are the real voters. But these machines can be hacked as easily as any DRE. Who's checking their work?

Let's use paper ballots without the machines!
Then count them publicly at the precinct and post the results at the precinct before publicly calling the totals in to the SoS's office.

How's that for transparent?

Jim, I'm all for it. I have been an unofficial witness at my precinct for a couple of elections with the good old mechanical lever machines. There can be no doubt as to the integrity of the results in the mind of anyone watching this process.

Sharon:

You are assuming the cogs and gears of the lever machine engage properly and have not been "adjusted" so as to be unreliable. Yes, the odometers are mechanically simple, the connection from the lever arm to the odometer is not.

As with all technology it is resistant to some fraud and suceptible to others. At least with lever machines more inspection and more public oversight reduces the opportunities to commit fraud and increases the likelyhood of detecting fraud.

With IC chips, the CPU and memory holding the software, there quickly (immediately?) comes a point were no amount of increase observation by any number of citizens (1 or 10,000) either reduces the opporunity to commit fraud nor increases the likelihood frauds will be detected. Especially, if the fraud is committed by a trusted insider.

This is because Integrated Circuits (IC's) are the ultimate "little black boxes". Watch them all you want. It will not give you any insight into the complicated, quantum dance of the electrons which is modern computation. For voting machinery the electron dance has to be both correct (no mis-steps) and uncorruptable (no substituting waltzes for foxtrots).

These are difficult goals to achieve.

"Jim, I'm all for it. I have been an unofficial witness at my precinct for a couple of elections with the good old mechanical lever machines. There can be no doubt as to the integrity of the results in the mind of anyone watching this process."

Sharon, are you familiar with the recent election goings-on in Middletown, CT? You might want to do a google or a search here on BBV.

It turns out that one of the lever machines had been underrecording votes for over 4 years in one of the candidate positions, and no one noticed it. The pre-election checks did not detect the problem.

Interestingly, even after the candidate noticed the problem, and a public inspection confirmed the problem, and a look at previous election records shows there was an obvious problem with this machine going back to at least 2000--the Common Council didn't want to follow the CT law and re-hold the election! There were 2 court hearings. Eventually a re-election was held, and the candidate who had lost out won a seat.

So--even "tried and tested" lever machines are not reliable, even with citizen observation of pre-election testing and post-election counting.

And even when an obvious physical problem is detected it is not at all a foregone conclusion that appropriate steps will be taken to rectify the situation.

As John W. points out, when you then put all the election workings into a black box that is impossible to observe, you confound the problems even more.

By the way timekeeping on a PC is done by a chip that has an independant battery, it's one integrated item that runs on the independant battery, there may be battery detection level built into the chip to stop the clock, but there aren't 'votage regulators' on it, it's CMOS technology which can operate on a wide variation of voltages.

The pre-election checks did not detect the problem.

The pre-election checks in CT, consisted of an ad-hoc poking of the system by the unqualified. Following my guidelines for testing voting machinery, poor as those guidelines are, would have detected the Middleton, CT problem. For no other reason than every lever would (including the defective one) have been used at least 3 times for each election.

Comparing what the CT election officials called testing to actual testing is analogous to calling the poking of a dead squirrel by curious boys an autopsy. An autopsy is a focus search for evidence which supports answers specific questions (cause of death). Testing voting machinery should be the same focused search for evidence which support answers to specific questions (conformance to law and specification).

What questions are the boys with the stick seeking to answer and what evidence are they gathering? Similarly what questions were the elections officials diligently focused on seeking answers to? The true tragedy in CT is the election officials (because no guidance or testing framework was provided) honestly and actually thought they were testing the system instead of just wasting time and effort.

Future testing in CT will be far more rigorous. But what about all the "Middletowns" that have not yet come to light?

Many people might believe that these machines, too, are "reliable", or might believe that the testing with observers present meant that things were ok.

Many people don't understand the rigor of a valid test.

You are exactly right about the "other" Middletown's out there.

But even in CT, more regorous is not the same as sufficiently rigorous.

I think a BBV "project" as actual elections near is to encourage citizen to witness and record the "testing" actually done and upon which election officials are signing official documents which attest the software works correctly and conform to the requirements of state law.

If the election official is provided with a docuent which describes a proper testing frame work prior to the testing, the official will not be able to state he/she was unaware of what proper testing is or how difficult good testing is.

I will speak to the BBV crew on that next week.

But none of that testing really tests the actual performance, which is all that really matters.

You can test a "point in time," but that point in time does not prove performance at a later time.

The only way to begin to get an idea of actual performance is a rigorous hand audit.

It should be mandatory to have some proof of actual performance- with the caveat that any discrepancy is cause for a full blown audit; and with a secure trail of custody for those paper ballots.



Look at how this fight for accountable elections has gone:

The fight by citizens to maintain some accountability with voter verified paper ballots;

Which shifted to a fight to require auditing those ballots, once/if requirements for vvpb were passed;

The fight to require a real review of the actual code- on multiple levels by independent sources.



One would think, that from a marketing standpoint, a vendor would have a lot to GAIN at this point, by making their entire system transparent.

One would think election officials would welcome some real accountability. After all that has surfaced about these machines, due dilligence requires a different attitude.

The fight against any kind of accountability and auditing should be a red flag.

Great idea. Lack of awareness of what constitutes sufficiently rigorous testing is a weak area in our election systems. This is relevant across the board--for citizen observers, election officials, ITAs and media.

Good point. I had not considered the media. I am not sure vendors would listen but I should be fair and include them as well.

Quick opinion check I am writing a 1 page executive summary to my testing guidlines document.

Is 5 simple rules to testing voting systems and 5 simple steps to creating a good test deck to glib?

Also, timekeeping on PCs (using Windows, at least is notoriously) poor, even on brand new machines. I've had this on 2 that were bought from high volume dealers (Best Buy, new models) and have seen it on many others, they lose time.

But they don't gain time. And if it is lost, it comes up as a default in the past, not the future.

No, I hadn't heard about the problems with the machines in Middletown. But it doesn't change my opinion that those machines are more transparent and more reliable than any electronic system I've heard about yet. I was a software engineer for nearly 30 years. I know what can go wrong even when the developers mean well.

Yes, you're right that the machines are more transparent. At least in Middletown--

1) They were given access to the machines so the problem could be demonstrated and replicated; and

2) When they opened up the machines and looked they could all see what was happening (or not happening, as the case may be), and they could see the problem in action.

That's never going to be true with anything electronic.

Pity about all the previous elections that took place with a faulty machine that could alter the result of an election (and did alter it, at least once).

How many candidates from previous elections would have noticed the low result from one single machine in one polling place? Evidently, none did. Many votes were never counted and no one ever knew.

John, I think your titles sound great.

Is it really only 5 simple steps in each case? Sounds very approachable. It makes me want to read it.

Once these are done they should be sent out by registered mail so the recipients can't claim they never got them.

It would be great if you could get a few authorities from national testing bodies to sign on, as well (i.e., not just those from within the election reform ranks). If there can be broad-based support for agreement on minimum testing guidelines that would add to its clout.

This project would make a significant contribution to the national dialogue. It would be a big education for all of us who have not given much thought to this subject (or assumed that others more competent were looking after this).

5 simple rules- but always with follow-up:

Election audits of VVPB.

Yes, we need rigorous tests.

We need confirmation that those tests work; (election audits)

We need confirmation that what was tested was relevant to what was used to count the votes.
(election audits)

Gotta test the back end of the process, too.

Also be aware that any straw that can be grasped and run with- and misconstrued- is a problem. You don't want officials mandating pre-testing, giving it their seal of approval like some do now, and then that's the end of it.

Pre-testing.

Post-testing.

Note to John, According to the original article, "Bauer went to court when he noticed that lever’s fishy results: He tallied 188, 179 and 169 votes on three machines at the Farm Hill Elementary School, but Machine 150051 gave him only 12 votes."

Your guidelines would not have detected this problem if the lever had only been pulled 3 times.

According to a study released a while back, the most common number recorded on the counters of lever type machines is 99. Coincidentally, that just happens to be when the 3rd tumbler in the counter rolls over. With a little practice you can develop just the right touch to loosen the set screw on the gear that drives the counter causing it to slip when the drag of the counter reaches a given point.

In my opinion, the only sure way to test any voting system is to test it under conditions exactly like a real election. That includes setting the time and date to that of the real election and casting as many votes for each candidate as is likely to be cast in that election. That takes care of hidden programs triggered by time and date or number of votes cast. You would have to do this twice, alternating who the winner is, to make sure there is nothing in the program to assure one candidate gets more votes than the other.

Pulling the lever 3 times for each of 8 elections (2 per year for 4 years) is a total of 24 pulls where each pull is expected to tally a vote on the odometer for the small, faulty voting lever.

The faulty lever had a 1% chance (12/169) of correctly tallying a vote on the odometer on any given pull on the big curtain drawing lever.

The odds of successfully pulling the faulty lever 24 times and getting 24 votes tallied on the odometer is 10^(-48). This is a very unlikely outcome. The test would have noticed the absence of a tally on one of those 24 test pulls. There is only a 1 in 10,000 chance this would go undetected with 2 pulls.

But, you do point out a flaw in my reasoning. I am assuming if I flip only the single faulty lever and leave all other voting levers alone (as per my guidelines), there is 1% chance the vote will tally and 99% chance the vote will not tally on the odometer. I am assuming 1 or 2 voting levers has a similar mechanical effect on the faulty lever as using 10-15 voting levers as on a more typical ballot. This may not be true.

There a complex mechanical connection between the big (curtain drawing) lever, the smaller (faulty) voting lever and the odometer tallying votes cast upon that small voting lever. The odds of the odometer rolling 1 position may be much greater than 1 in 100 because the mechanical connection is simpler if only one or 2 small voting levers are used.

But in my defense, the faulty voting lever would have to have its success rate (correctly tallies a vote on the odometer) improve to 79% in order for my test to have a 50% chance of missing the defect during the testing for a single election.

I get 50% in the following way: 0.50 =(.79)*(.79)*(.79). Three pulls where each pull has a 4 in 5 chance of working correctly gives you a 50% chance of having the odometer read exactly 3 after the 3 pulls.

I doubt the mechanical connection simplifies so greatly so as to improve the success rate of the faulty voting lever from 1% to 79%.

Your manipulation of the lever machine (does each wheel of the odometer roll over) would not be caught by a low volume test such as in my guidelines. Excellent point.

The only low-volume way I can imagine catch this defectis to manually set the odometer to 00009 do a pull. Set the odometer to 00099 and do a pull. Set the odometer to 00999 and do a pull. Set the odometer to 09999 and do a pull. Repeat for each ballot line on the ballot.

That is M*N tests; where N is number of pallot line and M is number of digits on the odometer wheels. So a 40 line ballot with 5 digit odometers is 200 test pulls. Tedious but certainly doable.

I am unfamiliar tough with lever voting machines. I do not know how much manipulation is required to carry out the step "manually set the odometer wheel to 00999" Thus, I do not know if this introduces so much mechanical manipulation of the lever machine so as to invalidate any results obtained.

What do you think? Would this be a test which produces valid results or not?

Also my guidelines are designed to catch mistakes not detect malice.

Malicious code can easily dodge the tests specified in my guidelines.

The election results though can be affected by either malice or mistake. We should at least try to diligently and vigorously find mistakes. Hopefully this will make malice harder to execute because the design goal for malice has been been changed.

The more difficult goal becomes execute the malice well and avoid detection during the testing for mistakes. Tesing with the guidelines will likely catch most mistakes and make malice somewhat (though not much) harder.

This is an improvement over the current framework used for testing.

Update on the "main battery not charging" entry.

Based on additional log info, this appears to be nothing more than an indicator that the machine is turned on without the power cord plugged in. Thus, it is not charging the battery.

There is no indication that it affects the date or time.

What appears to have happened in the "main battery not charging" examples where the votes are date-stamped on the wrong day is this:

The L&A test was completed.
After the L&A test, someone booted up the machine, then turned it off again. They did this without plugging it in, thus the "main battery not charging" entry. That is the type of thing that you might do when you are in a hurry and want to touch a bunch of machines -- say, in the warehouse -- in a short amount of time.

Somehow, whatever they did when they booted it up after the L&A, the date on about 4 dozen machines was affected.

There's a book by a computer scientist named Barry Boehm, called "Software Engineering Economics," originally published in 1981 and updated in 2000. The main purpose of the book is to apply some quantitative measures on the cost estimates of developing software, but one of the most valuable pieces of information that he gave us was this: the cost of finding bugs in a software system increases by at least an order of magnitude at each step of the process from requirements specification to design, coding, testing, and releasing to the customer. In other words, if finding a bug at the requirements phase costs $1, then finding a bug after the system has been delivered to the customer costs about $10,000. That's just dollar costs, not the cost in intangibles like customer confidence, etc. He also has data that shows how many bugs per 1K LOC will slip through at each phase, based on the number that are actually found.

My point is this. It's going to cost an inordinate amount of money to find and fix the bugs that slipped through and reached the customers. I'm not even including the cost of fixing flawed procedures that let election supervisors throw a machine in the back of someone's car and let one person drive it over to city hall, or wherever election hq is. And I'm certainly not factoring in the possibility of deliberate mischief on the part of the vendors. Who can really afford to do this? Who's going to foot the bill? Certainly not Congress. Certainly not the States. Diebold et al have gotten their windfalls. It's time to cut our losses and follow the lead of NYState.

Deliberate mischief, on the other hand, calls for some more investigation. I'd love to see a RICO charge brought against these companies, because that certainly looks like what they did to Florida.

Sharon,

That's an important point--the prohibitively high costs of finding bugs "downstream" as opposed to "upstream" at earlier stages in the process.

For those not techies--LOC means Lines of Code.

There's also another important aspect of Boehm's work that is relevant here. The risks of updating software to fix bugs increases over time, to the point where the original design (I'm being kind here and assuming that there was a design process) is so compromised that further "fixes" are going to introduce more bugs than they fix. At that point it's time to throw out the whole system and start over. From all the public evidence, and I'm assuming that there is more evidence that is still under wraps, I maintain that that point has already been reached.

Sharon, to what extent are these principles of Boehm's work known, acknowledged and accepted by the wider electrical engineering/software community?

1) That finding bugs is many times more expensive depending on how far "downstream" it is in the development process
2) That the risk of updating software to fix bugs increases over time to the point where it risks doing more harm than good

Catherine, anyone who claims the title of "software engineer" or "software project engineer," should be painfully aware of these realities, even though they may not know the name "Bohem."

They should also be aware of the work of the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon U, which developed the "Capability Maturity Model," a standard by which to measure a software development organization's ability to control its software development process. The e-voting project, in my opinion, should not have been undertaken by any organization below a 3 or 4. An organization at that level has documented requirements, design, coding, configuration management, and testing standards. On a scale of 1 to 5, I'm going to guess that Diebold, Sequoia, ES&S, et al are probably at Level 0.

I'm being sarcastic. There is no Level 0. Everyone starts at Level 1. The Space Shuttle team, by contrast, is a Level 5. Most DOD projects now require Level 3 at a minimum, and the organization has to have plans in place for proceeding to Level 4. (This was over a year ago--my information may be out of date by now.)

Sharon is correct. The order of magnitude increase costs for the detection and repair of defects as the effort moves downstream is is well known.

What is intriguing about voting machinery software is counties and municipal election officials often pay the vendor to repair defects the official discovers.

Talk about your perverse incentives to not detect defects as ealier in the process.

Why is it that counties and municipal election officials aren't complaining?

Is it that they've been dependant (one big family as Ion Sancho describes in his video clip), and therefore vulnerable? Why do they not feel they can stand up to the vendors? Is it because they don't have the technical knowledge? Is it that no one was given the technical access which would have given the election officials the technical knowledge to allow them to stand up to the vendors?

Did I say "windfall profits" earlier? Getting paid to fix bugs is more in the category of corporate welfare.

Y'know, as of about 15 years ago, New Hampshire was still counting ballots by hand. Now *that* is a transparent system. Any citizen observer can understand how the process works. I might possibly even be willing to go along with optical scanners, as long as there was a process in place for regular audits--full counts, not just samplings. But as for the touch screens and all the rest, they might be useful as boat anchors.

HAVA needs to be repealed. Diebold et al have been sufficiently unjustly enriched. It's a good thing these people aren't building ATMs... oh... wait... they are!

But what is keeping the county election officers so placid?

*Back-handers?
*Promises of lucrative jobs for the vendor or as lobbyists?
*Intimidating officials who are insecure in their technical knowledge?
*Preventing officials from getting accurate technical info by denying access to the code or to the machines?
*Assurances from vendors or politicians that officials will be "protected" in some way (e.g. moved up the ladder such as Katherine Harris in FL)
*Belief that the vendors will help them do their job better or more easily?

I wish Ion Sancho and other election officials would comment on this, privately to BBV if not publicly.

Sharon, I greatly respect the quality of your work... I've spent decades in industrial programming and have a bit of an idea of how difficult doing the life-or-death programming for an F-18 must be. You've made the first, obvious step of realizing our current systems were not designed to even the minimal quality standards.

And also the second step of seeing how corruption by those in power has enabled this fiasco.

But I think you still have confidence in the idea that some ideal computerized system could help create good elections. There is an inherant problem here, that ANY concentration of power corrupts - and concentrating the control of our national election to the handful of people who can understand the design of such a system would make a system where only that handful would have to be corrupted to fix the election results. Confidence would be limited to our accepting the 'trust us' from the design group, if only the most expert of the experts can understand it.

What's required is the wholesale application of the KISS principal... in BRIGHT sunshine of public oversight... democracy has been doing fine without machinery at all for a couple of millenia... easily biased machines are an inappropriate tool. For an election system to be trusted, it must be transparent to the half of the population who are below average - because they are aware that complexity is often used to deceive the naive, even if they don't understand the mechanizations. KISS so ALL of us can trust the process.

Physical paper ballots, securely stored under public view until they are counted under public view at the precinct level without 'chain of custody' doubts... it's not a perfect system, but like democracy it's the least of the evils... because it maximally distributes power.

Robert, I think you must have me confused with someone else. Go back and read my last post and then tell me again that I still seem to have "confidence in the idea that some ideal computerized system could help create good elections." And no, I never worked on F-18s, or any other fighters.

I've been reading this thread on and off with great interest. It is long and
highly technical, so please forgive me if this question was asked or answered before, or is obvious. The question I have, which seems like a "D'oh" is:

On the machines in question, is there a vote tally? If so, what was it? If not, why not?

Sharon, I was just grabbing the F-18 out of thin air... on another thread you were talking about working on secure processors & high reliability systems (like power plants & avionics)... and pointing out that was what voting machines SHOULD be designed like... rather than the current junk which I agree "But as for the touch screens and all the rest, they might be useful as boat anchors." hahaha

Personally, I've gotten to the point the only technology I want used is eyeglasses for the hand counters!

The machines have vote tallies. The pattern of votes cast is normal, spread through the 12-hour period while the polls are open. The results on the tapes vary -- on some, Bush gets more votes and on others, Kerry gets more votes. Those patterns don't do much good though, unless you know the precise demographics of the precinct where the machine was.

By the way, yesterday we found another one, this one skipped from the correct date (Nov. 2, 2004) to Nov. 2, 2011. It did so just after 1:00 in the afternoon on Election Day. The times stayed correct, just the date switched. Like most of the others, it skipped forward seven years just after a powerdown / powerup cycle. It is a mystery why it was powered down since there were absolutely no errors or unusual events going on in this machine. The machine had no log entries pertaining to battery problems, and no log entries about resetting time/date. It just was powered down, powered up -- in the middle of the election -- and the date advanced seven years without affecting the time.

I gather (judging from the spin elsewhere) that the challenge is to explain to people the implication of these kinds of time irregularities.

They appear to imply that something happened that shouldn't. And there is no way of knowing the implications--for example, whether or not there was a program on the memory card that said, "Power down the machine at 1pm, then start running xxx program which will switch certain preceding or future votes from candidate C to candidate B."

It's odd to see these time changes out of the blue; it certainly indicates that there was some kind of "different" programming since it didn't occur on all machines. Likewise with the sudden 7-year change of date. If not all machines did this, then there was some kind of inconsistency in the programming, which leaves the questions as to why, and what other effects might have been caused by this "different" programming.

The change of year could have been the result of someone triggering a code (e.g. activated by a memory card programme to trigger a certain activity after a power-down occuring at or after 1pm on Nov. 2 2004), indadvertenty with a programming error that also caused the date to change.

The change in time doesn't prove fraud, but it proved that something happened that so far cannot be explained, but which could possibly be explained by tampering or other interference with the code.

I assume that the only way to know for sure is to inspect the untouched machines and the untouched memory cards--if either still exist in their immediate post-election state.

Here's another thought: I'm not sure how voters are logged in for the precincts in question (In mine, each voter signs by their name in a book), but is there a way to confirm that the total number of votes for these machines and the other machines in the affected polling places match the total number of voters?

Sometimes when they don't match they say it's because of poll worker error. Which may be the case--but who's to know? This is why some discrepancies are ignored. There seems to be little interest in identifying the reason for discrepancies.

Other countries have zero tolerance for discrepancies in this area. (I think Belgium and Italy--can't remember the details.)

In other words, there is no reason for tolerating sloppy practice by poll workers or anyone else. This would reflect their bosses' attitudes and priorities. It also means there has to be adequate poll worker training and supervision.

An update: This thread is getting long, but never fear, there will be a new one. We are busily involved in something here at the office, very tedious. Thanks to Palm Beach County activists, who put us in touch with the ACLU, who made a good suggestion for the next move, we are preparing documentation to make that move. When we have made that move we will post a new story. Like most moves, it is incremental, moving the ball forward but not a knockout blow by any means.
 

The public must be able to see and authenticate these four essential steps for an election to be public, democratic, and valid: (1) Who can vote (voter list); (2) Who did vote (3) The original count; (4) Chain of custody.
