Is the Supervisor of Elections computer system vulnerable to hackers? Dan Sinclair, who is running against Sharon Harrington, says it is. In a FOX 4 exclusive, Sinclair and his team show how they were able to infiltrate one of the Supervisor of Elections servers. Using a structured query languange.injection, Sinclair and David Levin were able to gain immediate access to a server. From there, they collected the passwords for everyone that works in the Supervisor of Elections office for Lee County.
Sinclair fears that back door into the system could create chaos during an election cycle.
“They could go in there and change the dates of elections, send people to the wrong place, they could change whose running for office. They could take candidates information down. There’s all kinds of things they could do in there. It’s pretty scary.”
