After seeing the Maryland primary, I completely disapprove of electronic voting. It is highly prone to error, it is highly vulnerable to hackers (especially in Maryland), and in case there needs to be a recount, there is no paper trail. Some may accuse myself of being a Luddite, but that would be a completely irrational conclusion. Being against electronic voting is not the same as being against electronics. Elections are simply the wrong application, at least until all the kinks have been ironed out and there is no room for error or fraud. I predict that this will cause a mess in the general election that shall make 2000 pale in comparison.
