This is a continuation of Bowen’s little anti-Diebold snit. Any form of voting can be modified if one has unlimited access to the ballots. Think ‘erasers’, and ‘hand punches’. The security for any voting system is in the context in which it’s used, not in the hardware itself.

[Mr. Know It All]

Yes, but these machines can be rigged before the election. Someone may destroy or alter your paper ballot, but at the time you cast it, you know who you voted for. That's why I've started voting absentee -- you get a paper ballot.
