Reply #30: Excellent analogy [View All]

[scottxyz]

exactly like a cash register in a supermarket... No large supermarket chain has paperless, single entry machines. They produce receipts, a journal tape and an audit tape. There is no reason voting machines can't do the same.

This is an excellent analogy. When I go to the supermarket, I always check the receipt to make sure the sale items got marked down. And at the end of the day, the manager can read the journal tape from the register to confirm what was bought there that day. No computer transaction systems are paperless!
