all of it will be tallied up electronically regardless and you can manipulate it in any number of ways paper or not, challenged elections have shown as much. so I don't understand this fantasy that "paper" which is an ambiguous term is bandied about as the ideal solution. From paper ballots to punch cards, there are hundreds of stories of fraud. If you don't just up and lose them or mysteriously get different votes than the district involved would imply. If you can't find fraud you simply challenge the votes until you get the results you want, keep some polls open than longer, or take people to vote and help them. The ideal solution is getting it out of the hand of politicians into an independent board which can implement and secure it as needed. The real reason this comes up is because one side or another wants an excuse for losing over and over at various levels. It also is because it is becoming even more difficult to hide fraud that they have to scream its more rampant than ever or lurking right around the corner.
