RE: Taking my Silver on a field trip - to shape a nation. We even broke the law!

Yea there were big signs saying no photo's, also there can be no social media posting about who you support, a few slightly archaic rules around voting here still. But I am glad we are not voting electronically, the last few US elections have me a bit weary about electronic election fraud.

Yea, the fully electronic machines just seem ripe for manipulating. The past few elections here we fill out a ballot on paper and just feed it into a secure box, I'm not totally sure, but I think all it does is count it like a scantron. Of course the paper ballots are all still available for hand counting should there be a need.

Well it's good to know there is a paper trail to follow if there is some dispute over the votes! I just don't think people are trusting enough to let it go completely digital.
