And realistically, wouldn't a paper ballot and a pencil be the first federally certified voting system?
Not really. There was no federal certification program until the EAC and no uniform standards. The states are basically free to make up their own rules. Delaware might decide to require everybody to vote using red crayons and the feds don't have any say.
