"You have a machine that facilitates the voter's selection by way of touch screen etc.... then it creates a paper ballot, the voter verifies the ballot and puts it in the ballot box. If there is any question, you just count the paper ballots. How is it that you folks can't seem to get this simple concept down?"
Dang, that's the solution, and I've thought so since they started using the darned machines, but you just can't get this simple solutionn through the thick skulls of our legislators. Duh. We've voted in some really stupid, thick-headed folks who ought to go!
I'm also utterly amazed when the testers of the machines on which they are trying to install paper trails , complain that the print-outs get all fouled-up. they just can't get then to work right. What? I use a Diebold machine on regular basis at my bank, and that machine has no problems providing an accurate print-out every single time. Now, if they can have near 100% success on the banking machines, why can't this be duplicated on the voting machines with paper trails? Because, they don't want to! Why they don't want to ought to scare the crap out of you.
