I mean, I can see how she could squeak by not facing legal charges in the past. But I thought once the public testing of election equipment was completed in the days before an election, you could not touch the effing machines until it was time to set them up on election day.

The whole point of the public testing period was to demonstrate to the public that the machines, set up as they would be used on election day, were functioning as designed. I can't believe that fucking with them in between isn't a clear violation of at least one election law.
