14. Geeezz, I couldn't find Kiro's phone numbers fast enough...
I am SO tired of the paper ballot thing.

We have two systems now, maybe a third, that combine the best of both worlds- paper and electronics.

Both Accupoll and Avante have voter verified paper ballots.

Those ballots come with a code ID'ing them to the corresponding random number assigned to that vote.

Just run the paper against the machine and you'll catch any ballot box stuffing.

It would take an insider to committ ballot box fraud and Adler's system is just a susceptible to that, but on a scale thousands worse.

There is also the issue of recounts, which in Adler's system is dependent on the computer program. If those receipts go with the voter, you can't conduct a recount.

Adler's system could be set up just like the Diebold multiple books system.

(Bev, if you get a heads up, next time, call me!)
(I don't listen to the radio when I'm writin' stuff for the paper....)
