Why I am against machine voting
In Ohio AP reports thatMachine Error Gives Bush Extra Ohio Votes.
This is why I think paper ballots are essential. They leave a paper trail not dependent solely on bits in memory. Actual people can count the ballots if there is a dispute.
It is time to get rid of voting machines, punch card ballots, electronic voting and any other method that does not leave a reliable verifiable paper trail.
Paper ballots, computerized counting.
Works for me.

In our early voting in Texas they pretty much used paper ballots. On election day in San Antonio they had a voting machine (or two) over heat- probably because it couldn't handle all the hacking it was getting.
I put up a post on my blog about it (voting in Lockhart, Tx)
That's what we have in Oklahoma, and it seems to work pretty well. You mark a paper ballot, the machine counts it, and if need be can pull the cards out and manually go over them.
