Any voting guideline that doesn't include a paper receipt of the vote
that is given to the voter is worthless. In fact, there need to be two copies, one of which is given to the voter, the other is kept with the
machine(s). If there is ever a question of voting fraud, then the paper ballots can be counted by hand and, if necessary, the people can bring in their receipts to make sure that what is recorded by the machine, and by the paper receipt kept with the machine, matches the receipt that is kept by the voter.
Sure, this is potentially a very time consuming and inefficient process,
but ONLY if something goes wrong. 99.9 percent of the time, the machine
count would be kept.
We get paper receipts for our deposits and withdrawals at an ATM. Voting
machines need to have the same check installed. | |
