I'm talking about taking a pen and marking a paper with an "X" in the correct spot.

I know. For the most part, I was just funnin' ya.

Funnin yes. But Dems have been known to mark an additional "X" on the ballot, thereby making it an overvote. Or they could lose the ballots etc..

A printed reciept with a unique number is all that is needed to ensure integrity IMHO.
