Voter Verifiable Paper Trail

This is a very important article from one of the original authors of the paper that exposed the massive security issues with the Diebold voting machines. He was an election judge at his local primary, and these are his thoughts.

I mentioned in my previous post that I proposed and passed a resolution that would require all touchscreen voting machines to have a voter verifiable paper trail. I believe this issue is extremely important. Judging by the number of requests for interviews this guy had on his cell phone at the end of the day, hopefully it will continue to be an issue until it is fixed.

My day as an election judge

There were also some security issues that I found to be much worse than I expected.
