SUMMARY:Monday Night Film Series\: \"Hacking Democracy\"
DESCRIPTION:Local democrats investigating voting will discuss the implications of this shocking documentary about our inaccurate and insecure voting machines.   This film shows Bev Harris' research\, which  proved that the top-secret computerized systems counting the votes in America's public elections are not only fallible\, but also vulnerable to undetectable hacking. With the electronic voting machines of three companies - Diebold\, ES&S and Sequoia - collectively responsible for around 80 percent of America's votes today\, the stakes for democracy are high.
