You still have paper ballots - with audits.
- pmoriarty 8y agoThose audits are only triggered when the vote counts are close enough, within a certain margin. Since whoever controls or hacks the machines gets to set the vote counts, the audit only happens if they want it to.

- pmoriarty 8y agoWhat does that prove? Your electronic voting machine could completely tell you the truth about every ballot you ask it about, but lie about the total.
