What’s the best way to overcome the “hanging chad” issue with paper ballots that we saw during the presidential election in 2000?

I would like to think that politicians would want to have the safest and most accurate voting system that minimizes any room for error or voting manipulation. It’s too bad that such measures are often blocked.

Much luck to you in your upcoming race!

It seems to me like the scanner ballots (like what we used to take tests in high school) could be compromised if the scanner “misreads” the ballot. I remember the bubble sheets specifying use with blue or black ink or a #2 pencil only. Even still, some of our test scores were miscalculated because of issues with the actual test scanners. I like the idea of a stamp/blotter pen. That seems almost fool-proof. Thanks for sharing!

Wouldn’t that depend on why they’re searching the thing? Maybe they’re curious about what or how propaganda is being spread from the other side, not necessarily with the intention of succumbing to said propaganda.
