Flashback 2016 ‘Nigerian public varsities graduates cannot compete with my secondary school students’ 19 November 2016 Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has described graduates of Nigerian public universities as brainless, saying they cannot communicate in English with the students of his private secondary school, the American University of Nigeria (AUN) Academy. Abubakar, who spoke on Thursday evening in Yola during his birthday celebration organised by the management of AUN, said public universities graduates cannot fit into private industries due to their poor education and character. “I was in the University of Zik in Akwa in Anambra State on Wednesday on the invitation of the university. There is no student in public universities that can speak English in an error-free manner like the head boy of my secondary, who just finished addressing us now. “When the head boy of AUN Academy, Abdullahi Sani, started speaking, I was thinking it is one of the lecturers in AUN, but only for him to introduce himself as the head boy of AUN Academy,” he stated. https://www.google.com/amp/s/guardian.ng/news/nigerian-public-varsities-graduates-cannot-compete-with-my-secondary-school-students/amp 3 Likes 1 Share |

E-voting was introduced in Brazil in 1996 as a means to ensure secrecy and accuracy of the election process, as well as speed: the system underpinned by about 530,000 voting machines currently in place enables results to be processed within a matter of minutes within closing of the ballots. However, a public test of the equipment conducted by security and encryption specialists from Unicamp and Universidade de Brasília, two of the top computer science universities in Brazil, suggests that it is possible to easily break the secrecy of the machine and unscramble the order of votes recorded by the device. Brazilians unconditionally believe the [security of the] country's electoral authority and processes. The issue is that common citizens actually have no other option because of the lack of independent checks," says Unicamp professor and encryption specialist, Diego Aranha. Another issue is that the Brazilian machines, which are based on the Direct Recording Electronic (DRE) model, do not produce a physical proof that the vote has been recorded. This means there is a constant danger of large-scale software fraud, as well as other non-technical tampering that could be perpetrated by former or current electoral justice staff and go totally undetected, according to Aranha. The Brazilian Electoral Tribunal (TSE, in the Portuguese acronym) did not allow new public tests since the faults were discovered by Aranha's team in 2012, when the TSE granted access to more than 10 million lines of code for five hours. Since the system holes were found, the Tribunal said it would not allow further independent tests. "[The TSE] said that my attitude was disrespectful and a threat to democracy, which is bizarre given that I am a professor at a public university," Aranha says. "The reality is that there appears to be a conflict of interests, since the government wants to portray the system as bullet-proof and at the same time cover up these vulnerabilities," the academic adds https://www.zdnet.com/google-amp/article/fraud-possible-in-brazils-e-voting-system/ |

Electronic vote fraud Electronic voting fraud occurs when the electronic system in which one is voting on computer touch screens are used to gather votes, but since it has been implemented in the late 1980s it has been prone to voting fraud and irregularities. Although electronic voting can help make election administration more efficient, it has also presented challenges including software failures and a vulnerability to vote fraud.[1] Types of electronic fraud One type of electronic voting fraud is when incorrect programming causes machines to skip several thousand party-line votes, both Republican and Democratic. On old-fashioned, paper and optical scan ballots, voters can vote straight party depending on party preference. This one type of fraud that can be caused by incorrect programming[2]. Another type of electronic voting fraud is when it can be attributed to a programmer intentionally reversing the “yes” and “no” answers in the software used to count the votes or for certain candidates in a election. Those charged include circuit court judge R. Cletus Maricle, county clerk Freddy Thompson and former school superintendent Douglas Adams. The 10-count indictment accused the defendants of a conspiracy from March 2002 until November 2006 that included extortion, mail fraud, obstruction of justice, conspiracy to injure voters' rights and conspiracy to commit voter fraud. According to the indictment, these alleged criminal actions affected the outcome of federal, local and state primary and general elections in 2002, 2004 and 2006.[3] Specific allegations in the case are that Clay County Clerk, Freddy Thompson allegedly provided money to election officers to be distributed by the officers to buy votes, and he also instructed officers how to change votes at the voting machine.[3] Election officer William E. Stivers allegedly marked votes or issued tickets to voters who had sold their votes and changed votes at the voting machine.[3] Paul E. Bishop allegedly marked voters or issued tickets to voters who sold their votes, and he also hosted alleged meetings at his home where money was pooled together by candidates and distributed to election officers, including himself. He was also accused of instructing the officers how to change votes at the voting machine.[3] November 2003: A MicroVote machine in Boone County counted over 100,000 ballots despite that there were only 5,000 total ballots being casted in the small Indiana county.[2] November 2002: In Texas,Scurry County poll workers were suspicious about a landslide victory for two Republican commissioner candidates. Elections officials in Scurry County attributed and confirmed their suspicion that a “bad chip” was to blame as just before the election a new computer chip was flown in. After the known suspicion elections officials counted the votes by hand and after the recount found out that Democrats actually had won by wide margins, overturning the election.[2] November 1999: In Onondaga County, NY Bob Faulkner, a political newcomer, went to bed on election night confident he had helped complete a Republican sweep of three open council seats. But after Onondaga County Board of Elections staffers rechecked the totals, Faulkner had lost to Democratic incumbent Elaine Lytel. Just a few hours later, election officials discovered that a software programming error had given too many absentee ballot votes to Lytel. Faulkner took the lead and later won the election reversing the previous decision.[2] 'November 1998: In an election in Salt Lake City, 1,413 votes never showed up in the total. This was attributed to a programming error which caused a batch of ballots to not count, though they had been run through the machine like all the other races. When the 1,413 missing votes were counted, this resulted in a reversal on who won or lost certain races.[2] December 1997: In Akron, OH in a County Board Election in Portage County had Ed Repp as the winner of the election until a programming error was discovered that rendered a defeat for Repp. Another error in the same election resulted in incorrect totals for the Portage County Board election also resulted in incorrect totals for measure elections, causing massive chaos and extensive electoral recounts.[2] November 1986: Georgia had one of the first electronic voting machines, and the wrong candidate was declared the winner in an election in Georgia. Incumbent Democrat Donn Peevy was running for State Senate in District 48, and the electronic machines stated that he lost the election. After an investigation revealed that a Republican election official had kept uncounted ballots in the trunk of his car, officials also admitted that a computerized voting program had miscounted votes. Peevy challenged for a recount. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, “When the count finished around 1 a.m., they [the elections board] walked into a room and shut the door,” recalls Peevy. “When they came out, they said, ‘Mr. Peevy, you won.’ That was it. They never apologized. They never explained," said the State Senator after the apparent victory.[2] https://ballotpedia.org/Electronic_vote_fraud |
