"Feeling" the Internet is secure for voting is similar to looking at a doorknob to see if it is "clean." If concerned for bacteria or viruses that cause severe illness, "feelings" and naked sight do not suffice; microscopes and skills in microbiology are needed. Similarly, a security assessment of the Internet for voting requires Internet security experts with knowledge of features of casting ballots that differ from banking & commercial transactions. This is a category mistake.
