I hate the “new” machines we have here in Broward County. After the Democrats crybabied about the 2000 election ballots we switched to hi-tech touch screen voting. I really liked that. However, after Kerry lost and the Democrats screamed about “verifiable paper ballots” we went to a simple ballot where you filled in an oval with a pencil. Low-tech and I hate it.

Our precinct gives people a choice... paper or machine?

I always choose the machine.

Low tech but at least Rats can't stack them up and ram a nail through a bunch of ballots, invalidating some (republican) ballots (with an "overvote for 2 or more candidates in a race), manufacturing ballots (Democrat) for some unvoted races, and dimpling the chads in some ballots (where the nail does not go fully through the stack).

To fill in a black oval, someone must physically fill in that oval, one at a time, slowly and within the lines.
