...if these anomalies are more or less than the old paper system? i would probably guess they are close to the same. every time i have voted in every municipality i have voted in, the process has been a kludge.
and for those who slam diebold et al, just remember, they delivered according to specification. it's not like they told their customer "no, you cannot have a paper trail" -- i mean, get real or something, huh?
the paper system i would like to see would be a printout that looks just like the summary at the end of the process so you can verify both, then put the paper ballot in the bin and those votes are the ones counted during a recount.
of course, i have also felt that if i do not want to vote FOR any candidates running in a particular race, i should be allowed to vote AGAINST one of them.
...that they do not suffer from the netscape effect and go out and purchase a large number of tech companies that are not generating profits that cause a drag on their earnings whilst fending off m$ft.
