Do you know this for a fact? Can you identify the states/locations where this was implemented?

And how, pray tell, do you get "paranoid enough to watch access" to mean
*anything* when we allow the hacker *physical* *access* *AND* be
unsupervised due to the design of the polling booth?

What does physical access to the polling booth gain a "hacker"? They would need physical access to the tabulator that counts the individual votes, would they not?

You're going to have to get more specific about what it is you think was possible.
