Ask HN: Open-Source Election Software?

3 点作者 awake超过 5 年前
The Iowa caucus results are delayed tonight, apparently because of usability issues in a mobile app. I'm sure there are talented developers creating the app but somehow design or technical flaws are hindering the democratic process. Is there a way for developers to volunteer to help user test or do software reviews for software which is integral to the political process? This seems like an issue important enough that people would be willing to spend their time to help out.

Voting should be done via paper. It can&#x27;t be hacked at scale, requires little to no QA (get senior citizens to test layouts) and can be validated manually.<p>There is absolutely no need to have immediate results of any election in the United States. For a presidential election there is 2.5 months in between election day and when the new person takes office. Most other elections also have similar periods of time for change in leadership.<p>What problem is being solved by using consumer level software for voting?
