Create a system like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31668814 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31668814 for voting.
Voters remain anonymous yet can still verify their particular vote was counted correctly (and in fact that all votes are counted correctly)
You’d still want a paper trail.
- greyhair 4y ago"You'd still want a paper trail" <<<<<<<<<<< this Our new voting machines in our county are awesome, I hope they are used across the state (NJ). You get a blank piece of paper that you insert into the machine. You vote electronically, and it prints your vote out in plain readable text on the paper, and presents it to you protected under a piece of glass (maybe pexiglass?) to validate your choices. If there is something wrong, you can reject it at this point. If you accept it, it records your vote electronically, and swallows the paper ballot as a record. Nice clear printed text. No chads.
