Online Voting? Iowa Demonstrates Its Folly.

2. Although I do agree with you on paper ballots, I don't think the country is headed that way.

Technology tends to move forward, not backward. You have states like Georgia that just invested tens of millions in new electronic voting machines. They're not going to suddenly scrap them to move back to paper ballots. I live in Indiana, and Elkhart and St. Joseph Counties just spent several million on new electronic voting machines with a paper trail that work super well. I doubt they'll be getting rid of those machines to move to strictly paper ballots any time soon.

We used them in the 2019 mayoral election in November when we flipped the seat from red to blue. When voting is done, it spits out your ballot and you insert it into the ballot counting machine, which counts the vote and drops the ballot into a secure lockbox.

There was a city council race where one of the seats was won by a Republican by ONE vote. There was a recount done with the paper ballots and the total came out to be exactly the same.
