It amazes me that with today's technology, our system can be so stupid.
This is simply NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

I thought the same thing today when I voted. It's very strict on filling in the circle perfectly, then you just feed it into the machine. No way to know if it is read properly, or that my actual vote was cast.
Paper ballots are stupid, period. We should be voting at home on our computer or smart phone.
They manipulate the voting process to get their agenda through. That is called progress through technology. Prime example is the piggyback tax. When it was put into effect the max was at 50% now it is over 60%. Who is complaining about that? Complain Complain Complain. It is a simple thing. What you do control you rely on other peoples "Honesty". In this day in time "Honesty" is a thing of the past.
I totally agree. I want a receipt, not a flag sticker.
It's a huge red glad for me. I'm glad I took a picture of my ballot. Don't trust the voting process at all. Too much fraud with Cruzich garbage.
they ranted against the machines, they rant against paper ballot. What suggestions do you have for an "honest" election?
you put the paper in the computer and then it shows you what was on your ballot on the screen.
The machines were rigged and now paper ballots are not good enough. What now?
3:43
No it does not. We filled out the ballot and put it in the machine. It did NOT verify who we voted for. A few people actually questioned it.
another question as fast as it scan the ballot was it scanned on both sides or just one?
3:53 They always need an excuse for a loss, it is never them.
Voted for decades on the machines with curtains and little levers without problem. Totalizers that showed at end of day the number of votes cast and for whom.
Then the computers; frankly not much confidence in them, and even less now.
This year's process was mickey mouse. Anyone walking by could look over your shoulder. Cardboard privacy divider only gave partial privacy. Handing your ballot to poll worker permitted them to see your choices before ballot was fed into scanner. Big step backward!
Never should have junked the machines!
How hard would it be to post the ballot on the screen and ask the voter to verify what was scanned before accepting the ballot? Instead it says Thank You.
No it doesn't show you your ballot on the screen. It says Thank you. The elections official said that's all it does if it is rejected it will spit it back out.
The only thing they needed to do was add a small printer to the touch screens to print out verification of votes cast. Maryland would rather spend more money on scanners and monitors to say Thank you.
I, for one. When I asked about it I was told, it (computer) gives you one very brief opportunity..."is this...". If we're back to paper ballots, how is it that a computer tallies the vote count? Looks like we've just added another step to what we had.
