13. Fraud with paper ballots creates witnesses and evidence
and gives relatively small payoffs per crime, where

with electronic fraud

the payoffs for fraud are huge, it leaves no evidence or witnesses if done right, and appears just like a "normal" election.

Elections will ALWAYS be pressured, because there's so much at stake. We need to keep the evidence high and the payoff small. SImply saying "fraud's always been with us" is not a meaningful response the comes to grips with reality
