Comment A simple fix (Score 1) 343

What about a machine that tabulated votes electronically, but also generated a paper ballot based on the preferences entered? Paper ballots could be deposited in a traditional ballot box. Anyone could see exactly who they voted for on the ballot that got printed, and if there was a question, they could recount the paper ballots. About the third time the paper recount exactly matched the initial electronic count, people would start believing the hardware. No more hocus-pocus "self-auditing" black box. Is this too simple a solution for the politicians to accept? Is it too fraud-resistant?
