Digital vote-counting systems, which are still in use in some states, can be penetrated and manipulated by both foreign threats and domestic bad actors, according to Tony Shaffer, a former senior intelligence officer at the Department of Defense.

“The Chinese, Iranians, and North Koreans all have digital capabilities that can be focused on manipulating systems,” Shaffer said in an interview with The Epoch Times for the “American Thought Leaders” program.
