Seeing as how a simple misplaced period in the programming could through an electronic election machine off and cause it to elect the WRONG candidate, twice, I wonder; should the American people DEMAND paper ballots?
They're still in use all over the world, but not here. Hmm. I wonder why?

Many States still use paper ballots, which caused the recent major problems with voting. We saw the recount, late absentee ballots, and longer voting lines. Late voting calculation because some States kept the same old machines since the early 1900. The National-Union placed its own electronic online voting machine that is available 24 hours each day. The programming is so simple and secured that voters can vote anonymously and register in each election on time, whenever they're ready. Our voting machine has a back-up of paper ballots in case of a legal contest to the results, http://www.voteprimous.com

i don't think paper ballots would make a difference. Whether humans or machines its a human lying either way. At-least the machines cut back on paper. Voting is a joke - theres only two parties and they both work together to take different rights and make different laws while allowing the illusion of choice.

The Republicans will continuously face as much as something that a million. encourages greater voter turnout, 2. shines a spotlight on election fraud. The day absolutely everyone votes and those votes count quantity is the day the Republican party is extinct.

Whats the difference, when a Dem loses they will cry foul anyway. And always find a way to claim fraud. But never cry foul when they win. Its stupid. They do felon voter drives. And illegals. What does it matter. Dems have screwed this country up and have now found the way to do at the ballot box. If you found a way to make voting 100% fool proof and a Dem lost. It would still be voter fraud.

Well, I am all for paper ballots! Those machines are made by Diebold. Who, by the way, backs the republican party. Sounds kind of fishy if you ask me!!!!!

Hmmm, you have a point....maybe the republicans should start demanding a recount of the last vote, that one must surely have been wrong as well don't you think?

no i think we should all be able to vote by sms, i mean, who can be bothered with all the lining up and such? and with the money raised from the sms voting, they could have a prize, like a trip to hawaii or something
