I for one have only ever liked paper voting, and is why I exclusively vote absentee. Those votes are probably digitally tabulated too though.
Whose idea was it anyway to buy voting machines from companies? Shouldn't a government agency be responsible for designing the hardware and software? Also Americans are starting to realize how little transparency the voting system has. Voting software should be strictly opensource. It's not liek open source software in inherently less secure; most server software runs on a unix-based OS and "keepass" is the safest password keeping software. Neither of these things would be the reigning champions in their field had they been closed source. Because we can analyse the code we can tell it's more secure. Why can't it be this way with democracy?
