Paper Ballots

I am suprised and disappointed that Comon Cause continues to support legislation that calls for paper trails with electronic voting machines. It shows a profound naivete of computer programming.

I would strongly suggest that anyone reading this post and this comment review a brief video:

I would also advise Common Cause staff to take a look.

Our elections will not be secure until we return to paper ballots and hand counting at the precinct level. Just because a technology exists does not mean that we have to use it—or that it constitutes an improvement over more traditional methods.
