A striking 2019 video of Georgia Senate Democrats chairwoman Elena Parent discussing vote machine hacking has resurfaced after reportedly being made private by the Georgia Senate.

The chairwoman lays down an argument against the stat of Georgia signing a contract with ballot counting machine vendors, citing the high cost and fallability of the machines.

"I've done my own homework, and what I have found is deeply troubling," Parent said.

"So even if you think that the machines can't be hacked and all the votes are fairly counted, we still need the people of Georgia to believe in the process, and right now they are unconvinced," she continued.

She explains that the voting machines are not secure and advocates instead for a human marked and human processed ballot voting system.

"The machines are not secure. The consensus of cyber security experts and computer scientists and our nation's premier national academy of sciences engineering and medicine state that the best voting technology that is available is hand marked paper ballots with a human readable ballot marking device available for disabled voters," she stated to the legislature.

She goes on to quote a study from the National Academy of Sciences which said, "unless a voter takes notes while voting bmds that print only selections with abbreviated names and descriptions of the contest are virtually unusable for verifying voter intent."

The study continues, "the difficulty and unlikelihood of voters verifying any bmd produced ballot has prompted calls for hand marked ballots whenever possible."

Parent goes on to explain further issues with voting machines, such as the fact that they are un-auditable and cannot be used to verify voter intent due to the second-hand recording of voter intent with the machine's interface.

She also goes on to explain concerns with the machine's vulnerability to malware interference

The channel who reposted the video of Parent's arguments against the use of voting machines, called "Dick Spencer," claims that the Georgia Senate made the video private on their platform so it could not be viewed.

"The GA Senate privated this video, but it seems like it should be public," the video description reads.
