Opening Post For the Open Source Voting System.

I am going to leave this here for people to post comments and discuss this idea. I have an idea about overall architecture but there are experts at every level that know more. 

 Core ideas:

1. Each Machine maintains an indestructible log of votes entered.

2. A new communication protocol will be developed enforcing transparency in communications between voting machines. Encryption will be built into the hardware so that the only communications sent with this protocol can be from machines with fixed IP's on a whitelist. If possible each Gateway will be whitelisted so the entire path can be forced and intrusions ignored.

3. A complete publicly searchable database will be kept for registered voters.

4. Each vote entered will be stored in a similarly searchable public database. 

5. Using public/private key encryption a voter will be able to go through a trusted private 3rd party to see who the state recorded their vote for.

More people is always better. Time to go to work. This starts here.
