Paperless machines were all the rage a few years ago, we had them here. Never trusted them as there is absolutely no way to audit them.
Remember that the problematic Votamatic system that caused all the uproar in 2000 in Florida was a vast improvement over the ancient voting machines, also impossible to audit and also fairly easy in most cases to "jigger" so that votes would not record. The punch card was frail and it was easy to build a ballot system that confused the voters, but at least there was a real paper copy that could be read without a scanning machine. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
