Summary: Last year, the government introduced a bill to allow computers at polling stations in municipals that would try them. It was highlighted as an 'experiment', but the law text did not provide that same sentiment, it was a blanket permission to use computers at polling stations, which was at the discretion of the interior minister alone (whom also proposed the bill). After much heated debate, and letters to parliament from primarily Version 2 readers (Version 2 is a Danish IT-news site), Venstre - the largest party outside the government - decided to vote against it. The three governing parties, Radikale, Socialdemokraterne and Socialistisk Folkeparti were all in favour of the bill, while all the other parties outside the government (including their support party, Enhedslisten, opposed the bill). The arguments for the bill was that it would help disabled people to vote in secret and that vote counting would be quicker (it currently takes 2 days to get exact mandate votes counted), while the arguments against was security and voter trust in the system, which would be undermined by a system only few people can understand.
