One article said after Bush V Gore, they went to electronic voting then went BACK to paper ballots at some point. Except they’re not punch cards now, I guess they’re things people actually write on...as if THAT is any more reliable. Are they insane? I can’t understand people thinking it’s better to stay in the dark ages technologically.

If you have to rely on humans reading and counting ANYTHING, you open things up to errors and very easy fraud. You can’t “throw out” electronic votes. You can’t “find” electronic votes. And you can’t miscount or misread them.

That’s precisely why they don’t use electronic ballots, probably.

I am in Orange, though, and we use paper ballots that are counted electronically. You blacken in a circle and the machine tabulates it. We don’t have that problem. I would not blame the ballots. I would say it’s fraud. Every county in the State can do it except these two. They use the claim of incompetence to cover up their fraud.

You have it completely backwards. Paper is secure, as long as provenance is maintained. If it is not, then the ballots should not be counted. Paper ballots can be burned out back in the firepit, but paper doesn't burn very well in dense stacks.

In contrast the electronic records are completely at the mercy of the admins. And the admins are cheating, lying Dems.
