Comment : | 10a. a. Vol. I, §2.3.4.1 explicitly permits vendors to "segregate test data from actual voting data... by software features." This opens the door wide for unscrupulous vendors. "Test mode" does nothing for security, since an unscrupulous vendor can simply program it to operate honestly, while "real election mode" cheats as desired.
