[Nfbmo] bill to eliminate electronic, private, ballots moves through MO l...

There is nothing wrong with the machines that Missouri uses - the Secretary 
 of State certifies all electronic voting systems to be accessible, as well 
as  secure.  Remember, none of these systems are  EVER connected to a  
network, much less the internet.  They don't even have internet  connections.   
As I noted in an earlier post, all data from electronic  voting systems save 
their data (for a particular machine) to a chip, which are  signed off by 
all supervising personnel (evenly divided between REpublicans and  Democrats) 
and then picked up by Board of Election officers to be taken to the  Board 
of Elections.
      And they *do* contain a redundant paper  trail.
      As if paper ballots are completely  secure!

      Of course anything can be compromised, but  what needs to be fixed is 
the perception of the public who are calling for paper  ballots only.

True that  is, but ballot boxes can be stuffed, paper altered, lost and
destroyed. We  need to fix the machines so we get good counts and have the
paper as a  backup.

Hi
I think part of the problem is that many people are  afraid that the
electronic voting machines can be hacked.  This could  be a real disaster.
