There's no reason on god's green earth the USA needs electronic voting. eVoting should be eliminated. Why? 1. Because there is commercial (read: political) interest behind all voting machine companies. 2. Any software/firmware anywhere CAN be futzed with.
The ONLY reason to NOT go with a nation-wide standardized, paper ballot is to fuck "The People" out of a _verifiable_ election.
