I would add to that that apparently the tv people maybe do try to make
that gaming harder then just writing a simple Perl script - but don't
really adhere to the strict rules required for a political process,
and that enrages the other side.   I guess that depends on how serious
that tv programm pretends to be - but if it is just a show trying to
illustrate how the system works and what can be done with it - then
most probably it does not need to be on the same security level as a
voting system used for formal proceedings.
