58. That voting machine software code should be Public Access.

It should be viewable, open source, and LOCKABLE FOR ELECTION DAY.
Anyone can download a copy, run whatever mocks they want so they can watch it work in real-time. Uploads to the source server would be locked out so no changes, and locked out and tamper-proof for election day. It wouldn't be difficult to build, and by that I mean the coding students at your local community college could probably do it for a semester project. If it were open source, anyone can download it and look for problems...find one and you call in, report the problem and it gets fixed. Easy Peasy.
A million sets of eyes looking for problems and the problems WILL be found. But, that of course isn't useful for the Owners, is it?
