This portal is a dumb idea, but most developers know you don’t let on when a hack is attempted and you detect it. It’s common to return a “success” message in hopes the “hacker” stops trying and moves on. Meanwhile, you log the attempt (and don’t actually cancel a voter registration).
Though, I don’t have high hopes the state actually built a secure site here.
“The Projects” is a term used to describe government provided (or subsidized) housing for poor people. The term is generally used to indicate “a place in a city where income is low and crime is usually high”.
