- JohnFen 7y agoBut you would need to ensure that your sample was statistically representative, which means that you shouldn't allow voters to self-select whether or not their vote is in the sample. I would add that (at least in my state), validating a sample of votes to provide an indication of a problem has been done for at least as long as I've been alive, so we already have that. But my state doesn't use electronic voting machines.
