HAHAHAHAHA:
Former President Nicolas Sarkozy’s political party, already enfeebled
by a chaotic national leadership election last year, faces further
ridicule in a Paris town hall primary election which ends tonight.
An “online-primary”, claimed as “fraud-proof” and “ultra secure”, has turned out to be vulnerable to multiple and fake voting.
...
What was already shaping up as a tense and close election was thrown
into utter confusion at the weekend. Journalists from the news site
Metronews proved that it was easy to breach the allegedly strict
security of the election and vote several times using different names.
To
register their vote on-line, Parisians were supposed to make a
credit-card payment of €3 and give the name and address of someone on
the city’s electoral roll. Metronews said that one of its journalists
had managed to vote five times, paying with the same credit card, using
names, including that of Nicolas Sarkozy.
...
The
narrowly defeated candidate, the former Prime Minister, François
Fillon, accused the winner, the party secretary general, Jean-Francois
Copé of “fraud on an industrial scale”.
Man, that's one locked tight security system. A veritable electronic Maginot line, even.

I wonder what lobbyist/marketing wonk sold them on that idea. I wonder if he sold them a monorail too.
To paraphrase: "Is Internet. Is not safe."

When even the bunny knew IN ADVANCE that you were GOING to fail...

Is that the same credit-card scheme Obama used to collect donations?
