Reply #55: Ireland changed its mind at the last minute and reverted to paper ballots:

[Helga Scow Stern]

"A last-minute decision prevented computerised voting being applied in Ireland for local elections last year. The computers were put away and new ballot boxes had to be bought to replace those sold off following the earlier decision to do away with paper ballots. A close shave! Obviously, what is going on over there is also of vital importance to the future of Irish democracy. We must not have computerised voting without open source code and a paper trail."
