They ought to use paper ballots and scanners. These machines
are bad if for no other reason than they are so controversial
and undermine confidence in elections where they are used.

"undermine confidence"

Because of constant media hype, and failure for MSM to really look at what a hoax the Princeton study was.

Tell the truth and the confidence comes back.

Went to vote this morning, and the machines were down. I don't worry about elections being stolen, just the normal problems with machines and computers. I don't understand why they cannot have a machine/computer voting system in which, when you indicate you are finished, it not only records your vote, it also gives you a slip of paper that you can check (like a reciept). Then, you could slip that into a ballot box, so that if they had to do a recount, they could use those little paper ballots.
