So, now the "operator" (presumably a person) knows how you voted? (how

He "knows" how I voted the same way that the election officials "know"
how I voted with the paper ballots. Or did you think they can't look
at those, too?

ahh, well. they _can_? *wow* I suspected that your system is screwed, but I
didn't expect it to be f*cked that way.

Of course, they're "x's" on a piece of paper that must be lined up with
a template in order to interpret what they mean. All he did was
verify that it printed out. He didn't look at it in an attempt to see
how I voted.

Not that it matters -- he has no idea who I am, or how many times I've
voted. Until mandatory IDs are required to vote, the system is an
utter sham.

yes it is. and it is more of a sham that you accept it they way it is.
