On the positive front, it seems that this upcoming presidential election–the number of american voters using paper ballots will be more than in any other election in U.S. history. From Yahoo news:
That wasn’t supposed to happen. If everything had gone according to the government’s $3 billion plan to upgrade voting technology after the hanging-chad fiasco in Florida in 2000, that sentence would read “electronic machines” instead of paper. Instead, thousands of touchscreen devices are collecting dust in warehouses from California to Florida, where officials worried about hackers and fed up with technical glitches have replaced the equipment with scanners that will read paper ballots.
The controversial history of the diebold voting machines are well publicized and seems to have “lost the trust” of the american populace. For those of you who feel the need to hack into the diebold machines, here’s an illustrated cheat sheet you can print out for endless hours of knee slappin’ fun!

I personally believe that it is important to have a paper trail to document the votes. Because if the voting machines use any Microsoft Windows operating system, you know it will crash on election day. Paper ballots are the way to go.
