I find that silly, what do you mean there's no paper record? Each machine has a print out of the total votes it has in it. These machines are also not connected

I find that silly, what do you mean there's no paper record? Each machine has a print out of the total votes it has in it. These machines are also not connected to the internet. And lastly, he sure didn't have a problem with the machines for the several years he was in office, right? Only now that someone was polling better than him. I find the Brazilian electronic voting machines to be better than how we do it in the US.
- andrenth 4y agoIf the printing can’t be verified by the person right after voting, it’s useless. He did have a problem with the machines for a long time, and so did other candidates and parties. It was them who changed their stance to avoid being on the same side as Bolsonaro.
- anderber 4y ago> If the printing can’t be verified by the person right after voting, it’s useless. I don't agree with that. I'm curious about where a person can verify that their vote is actually the one counted? Because you can't in the US (whether by mail or in person). Don't get me wrong, I think and individual printout would be great! And even better if you could go online (or somewhere) and verify that the vote counted was the one that you have a receipt for. I just don't think these improvements justify Bolsonaro's claims.
- andrenth 4y agoWhat claims? He basically agrees with you. An individual printout that allows one to verify that the vote matches what the machine displays, and that allows for a recount to ensure physical and digital counts match.
