"Jay Riestenberg, a spokesman for the Voting Rights Lab, said Monday that the group was not aware of any other state election boards proposing significant changes this close to the November election."

Democrats: We want #handmarkedpaperballots.

Republicans: We want to be able to declare the results "rigged" (never mind serious evidence), refuse to certify and turn the election over to the GA legislature (if Trump loses).

This is why we must demand #HandmarkedPaperBallots. They can be counted by machines and audited by humans.

Louisiana candidate wins by 1 vote in Caddo Parish Sheriff election

In the northwest corner of Louisiana, a candidate for parish sheriff is demanding a recount after losing by a single vote in an election where more than 43,000 people voted. The tight race shines a spotlight on Louisiana’s recount process and its outdated voting machines, which do not produce an auditable paper trail that experts say is critical to ensuring election results are accurate. When the recount takes place Monday only absentee ballots will be tallied again, as they are the only auditable paper trail. States’ recount abilities have proven to be exceedingly important, especially following the 2020 presidential election when multiple battleground states conducted recounts to confirm President Joe Biden’s victory.

I've been on this topic since e-voting was first proposed.

Security, auditability, anonymity: Pick any two and you can code it.

For all 3, #HandMarkedPaperBallots are the ONLY solution.

The Only Safe Means of Voting is Hand-Marked Paper Ballots

SHARE: Twitter Facebook Linkedin Email More This op-ed originally appeared in Real Clear Policy on June 4. Since then, problems with ballot marking devices in Georgia’s June 9 primary further demonstrated the need for a switch to hand-marked paper ballots. The 2020 election season started with clear examples of the folly of our unquestioned faith...

#HandMarkedPaperBallots can be machine countable and human auditable.

Nothing else can.

@RJA @YinzPittsburghers On Twitter some time ago I remember reading the #handmarkedpaperballots hashtag, and it came from progressives. Aren't those PA patriots asking for something like that?

Voting machines pose a greater threat to our elections than foreign agents

As the election security conversation widens beyond Russia, to include countries like Iran and China, it’s important to examine how security flaws in our country’s voting equipment increase the vulnerability of our elections.
