In Washington State, photographs of each ballot are taken as the ballot is removed from the envelope and after it has been electronically tabulated. This prevents someone from replacing a paper ballot along the way.
- joshfraser 7y agoGood thing photos can't be deleted. Oh wait.
- Buttons840 7y agoPhotos can be deleted. It would be detected and then law enforcement would or would not do anything. A blockchain voting system would enable us to detect vote tampering, and then law enforcement would or would not do something about it. What's the difference? IMO, 99% of the people wont understand a blockchain system. To them it will just be "X won because a computer said so". So the question is do we want society to be filled with people thinking "I know those votes were made with pen on paper and were counted by my neighbors and trusted friends" or do we want society filled with people who think "it must be true because a computer said so"?
