Yah mean we gotta teach 'em how to use the machine, how to use the
paper ballott, and get them to do the same thing on both? So far we
aren't batting very well on just one.

Well, there is that. Those in favor of electronic voting machines claim
they are easier, and would eliminate hanging chads (etc.) Are those people
right? I don't know. It's certainly true that better idiots always come
along to defeat idiot-proof devices. You have a point.

That gives them two places to screw up and a thrid one to complain
about:-))

Yup. Personally, I never found the whole "fill in the circle" thing all
that difficult. But there certainly have been some fiascos related to that
ballot type, as well as others (like the "punch the hole" type).

Maybe we just need a whole new type of fiasco, 'cause people are getting
bored with the old kind?
