However, it appears that it is still electronic voting, except that (it) spits out a paper receipt.

If that is the case how do we become suspicious enough of the electronic vote tally to request a manual recount? Maybe manual recounts should be mandatory?

edit to add (it)

was stolen in 16.

Trump was very popular here, especially in the rural precincts. From seeing the enthusiasm on the ground, I thought he was going to win our county. The results by precinct are available online.

Every election they do an audit, randomly picking a handful of precincts and doing a handcount of thd ballots that are generated and comparing to the electronic returns. I am not sure it has to be an exact match, in order to get an official recount according to state law there has to be like a 3% difference to mandate a full recount.

Not sure what other counties do.

... only slightly better than purely electronic ballots.

Hand counted paper ballots are cheaper anyway

Yet no problem coming up with money for this

In some areas there were scanner problems that held up the line. In addition, the absentee ballot options have become looser. Now I can just apply for the AB without a dr signature saying I cannot go to the polling place. That’s a real benefit for those who can’t wait in line because of physical or time constraints.

Looks great!!!

A malfunction in new voting machines forced a ballot recount in Northampton County.

Election officials worked overnight after Tuesday's election to re-scan paper ballots. The state had advised the county to recount paper ballots instead of using the machines' counts.

Northampton County Executive Lamont McClure and representatives from ES&S, the company that makes the voting machines, have scheduled a news conference for Wednesday afternoon to address the issues.

They'll discuss the results and the performance of the new voting machines in the 1 p.m. news conference in council chambers, according to a news release from the county executive's office.

That's why we need a blue tsunami.

The UK and many other countries have hand counted paper ballots.
Edit: No computer scanning is part of the process.

Unless your aim was to rig elections, the idea is completely absurd on its face.

I trust Jennifer Cohn

Some of these machines ask voter “do you want to review or submit”. If you don’t ask to review it, it doesn’t print until you leave the voting booth.

Some machines have ability to make up votes as a “test”.

We need hand marked, hand counted, fully transparent process.
