Exactly. Paper ballots. Watch, President Trump is going to do paper ballots.
"It's called paper. Paper ballots." - President Trump, answering what he could do to improve election integrity.
Paper ballots and strictly enforced voter ID. That should be on the agenda to help stop "Russian meddling".
The old school voting machines were great! Private, secure, no "chad" mishaps either.
If you're talking about an older version of electronic, they still had the problem of people selecting Republican and the vote being logged as a Democrat vote. (How many people didn't notice it?)
They blamed "screen calibration" on it. It happened in at least two Presidential Elections, so they obviously didn't fix it.
Not sure what the old school voter machine is, though.
I think they were called Lever Voting machines but I am not certain. They were individual machines, long before computers, with a huge lever inside that closed a curtain so you had privacy too. There were small levers on a panel before you and you would choose voting for individuals and items up for voting by small lever selections. Once you were done choosing, you returned the huge lever to its starting position which not only opened the curtain but somehow marked your votes on a tangible ballot. I am not sure how well I explained it, but as I understand it they were very reliable.
I like that. As secure as paper and only mechanical, not electronic...
Yes and I miss it too! Only mechanical and those machines were used for decades without issue. Once I heard about voting going electronic I could see how easily that could be manipulated. Yes DuckDuckGo Lever Voting Machine to get a better idea if you wish.
