- benchaney 9y agoYes, if we assume away all the problems inherent to machine counting it seems like a great solution.
- throwawayjava 9y agoYes. My point was just that there are obvious up-sides... so it's not like e-voting is some pointlessly insane thing. I happen to think it's a bad idea even with dead tree audit trails, but I can respect the position that, with appropriate audit trails, it makes the voting process more robust.
