So, if this is happening,
how do we know that what we see on the screen is what gets recorded?
Winner!
If your machine is like the touch screens here in WI, you check the tape in the little window on the lower, right hand side of the machine. When the tape records the vote you wanted to cast, then you cast the vote.
The screen doesn’t count; the tape counts.
” how do we know that what we see on the screen is what gets recorded?”
You DON’T !
“It’s not who votes that counts; it’s who counts the votes.” - Someone...
We dont know for sure how our vote is recorded since there "IS NO PAPER TRAIL !;therefore there is no verification of the vote.
Totally unsatisfactory ! Even the proverbial 'hanging chad' is better than this !
Recalibration , or tampering - what's the difference ?
“how do we know that what we see on the screen is what gets recorded?”
We don’t. Maryland says thet don’t know if this helps democrats? Each vote flipped is one legitimate republican vote lost plus one illegitimate cast for democrat if this done only 50 times it’s a hundred vote difference. a hundred votes here a hundred votes there. The democrats believe they are entitled to steal enough votes to give them any close election. When studying Voter ID I found a paper on the internet ay the NYU Brennan justice Center, which is againt Voter ID or anything else that would promote honest elections and for anything that allows theft anfd manipulation of votes and election results. The last line of one paper said Voter ID only makes a difference in a close election anyway.
