The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warns about potential security risks posed by Chinese-made components in voting machines. DHS Secretary Mark Weinstein states that these components could serve as entry points for hackers, allowing coordinated attacks on machines and voting districts. In response, DHS requires states to implement stricter security measures, including switching to hand-marked paper ballots and conducting random manual audits of at least 5% of ballots after each federal election. The Department of Homeland Security will deny grants to states that do not comply with these measures.
