    Ahhhh… The great idea to delegate voting to machines built by private shit corpos. From where I come, we vote on a paper. And boy, it works fucking great.

      Californian here, we’ve always voted with paper in the 5-6 different cities I’ve lived in here.

      It does work great.

      Lots of people in the US vote on paper too (maybe counted by a scantron like machine).

      It’s a country with like 350 million people on a land mass that’s about the same size as China. Each state controls its elections, and they all do it slightly differently.

      But yeah I agree with the private corporations part. That’s fucking dumb.

        Only the blue and red states allow the use of electronic voting machines. Our dumbest state uses them exclusively.

        All others use paper.

          The third least educated state (Louisiana), so perhaps not the literal dumbest.
