Voting machine operating systems hacked?

So, if I'm reading correctly, voting machine systems have been hacked and the software copied.
I thought these machines weren't connected to the internet. How else can hackers access the software?
If there is any chance of the machines being compromised, why are they being used?
This should have been a bigger story.
Anyone been keeping up with this?

The letter sent by nearly two dozen computer scientists, election security experts and voter advocacy organizations asks for a federal probe and a risk assessment of voting machines used throughout the country, saying the software breaches have “urgent implications for the 2024 election and beyond.” The breaches affected voting equipment made by two companies that together count over 70 percent of the votes cast across the country, according to the letter.
quote:
In addition to Georgia and Michigan, the letter mentions voting system breaches or attempts to access voting-related systems in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Nevada and Colorado as well as various individuals involved in the efforts. It stresses that possession of voting system software could enable people with ill intent to practice how to meddle in the 2024 election, allowing them to identify vulnerabilities and test potential attacks
quote:
Among the 22 people who signed the letter to the federal agencies was Douglas W. Jones, a computer scientist who said the effects of the various breaches were not limited to the local election offices where they occurred because the voting system software involved is used by many offices across the country. The letter says those involved accessed equipment made by two of the leading manufacturers, Dominion Voting Systems and Election Systems & Software.

Its my own personal tinfoil theory that Mossad will hack the machines to get a Trump victory to ensure unwavering support when they strike Iran. Biden/Harris has been too wishy washy.
I think this is why they’ve paused and havent struck yet.

This only made it to the light of day because it was to smear officials (such as Tina Peters) who tried to assess whether or not the system could be corrupted.
Under this regime, it's not a problem if the system might be corrupted. It IS a problem if you try to determine whether it is or not.
From the same article:
ATLANTA (AP) — An effort to access voting system software in several states and provide it to allies of former President Donald Trump as they sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election has raised “serious threats” ahead of next year’s presidential contest, according to a group of experts who urged federal agencies to investigate.

It's because someone from the Biden DOD leaked information about the plans. We do not have a government that acts in our best interest and that of our allies.

These progressive Dema are straight up Marxist.
They are actively seeking to destroy traditional American values. Only once the old way is destroyed can the new be fully instituted. It's all straight outta the "Communist Manifesto", by Marx. They've replaced economic angle with cultural and societal attacks.
It's all intentional. What do you think Kamala means when she says, "What can be, must be undurdened by what has been..."?
