In France, it works the same way as in Sweden evidently.
I believe one of the aspects that makes it different in the US is that on election day, there isn't only one thing to vote for. There's the President, a Senator, a Congressman, a Judge, local public transports directors, etc. and a bunch of propositions.
And that's different from one county to the next, from one state to the other.
I suppose that's part of what made it interesting to look into computerized voting machines.
- m_eiman 18y agoWe have three elections at the same time (national, regional, communal), and the solution is simple: make the slips for each election have different colors. The national election slips are white, communal slips are blue etc. To make sure nobody takes puts e.g. national slips in all three envelopes there's a small cutout at the edge of the envelope that shows the color of the slip inside without revealing the vote.
