This is how the new voting machines we use here in Austin work.
Big friendly, easy to use touch screen, it then prints your ballot on paper, in big friendly easy to read lettering. You then feed that into another machine. There's the e-voting, as well as paper ballot paper trail.
- hoseja 7y agoWHY does anyone need electronic voting in the first place? How much of an inconvenience is it to make a mark next to your choice on a piece of paper? I feel like there is some insane American reason to make voting machines but I can't comprehend it.
- Operyl 7y agoIn Florida, our ballets are very long legal pieces of paper and can sometimes be 7-8 pages worth... So I definitely see the appeal here. The font is tiny for the population, as well. A lot of our population has problems filling the bubbles too (because of varying physical conditions).
