Since tampering with a federal election
is a federal crime and if tampering is found in New Hampshire (which I feel sure it will), does that mean an automatic recount in ALL the states with those kinds of machines? Meanwhile Bev is working on the touch screen ones. Also isn't it true that sometimes a hacker can be traced back to the point of origin (with luck).

1. Since the stakes are so high

I think the penalty should be raised to Life in Prison without Parole for participating in the act and 25-years-to-life for concealing or knowlingly withholding knowledge of commisssion of the act.

Can't see how it isn't as serious as assassination since it seeks to nullify an election result.
